Superbloom release their fifth single ‘Smile’

UK based indie alternative rock band Superbloom, featuring the talents of Robert James and Sam Lidington, made an outstanding delivery with their latest work Smile. Released on April 8, 2022, Smile is the band’s fifth single and it happens to be their toughest track yet. Despite the launch happening in the midst of a pandemic, Superbloom has proven their exceptional talent with Smile.
According to James, Smile is “the most technical track” they have ever written. It is also one of the first songs James and Lidington wrote together for the band. Influenced by the rock music of the 90s, the duo, with the help of Thomas Mitchener of Broadfields Studio, have used a combination of instruments and chorus effects to make Smile unique but still maintain the hard rock sound that resembles the music of famous bands such as Soundgarden and Nothing But Thieves. Technicality aside, perhaps the most important thing about Smile is not the sound but the meaning behind the song.
