Blushing’s third LP, Sugarcoat, showcases their signature blend of dreampop and indie rock, drawing on influences from Lush to Smashing Pumpkins while staying fresh and forward-looking. The album explores a wide range of alt-rock styles—from post-punk to psych-gaze and slowcore—with lush, reverb-soaked production. A standout moment is “Seafoam,” featuring a guest guitar performance by Smashing Pumpkins’ Jeff Schroeder, adding depth to an already dynamic record.
