The sophomore album "Embrace The Light".

Ex-dora flood leader Michael Padilla returns with a new album of dream pop psych from the West Coast.

Their self-titled debut album was a big favourite here.

One to look forward to....

“The Soft Bombs’ new album “Embrace The Light” continues the psych-pop journey they started with their wonderful self-titled first release. Originally the brainchild of guitarist & vocalist Michael Padilla, this sophomore effort shows a band that is clearly becoming a unified force and delivers quite a kick to say the least. Some songs harken back to the explosive improvisations...... of vintage Syd Barrett at his peak in the Floyd days. Others bring to mind reflections of Robyn Hitchcock and Julian Cope, yet the band rocks with all the pop splendor of what Ric Ocasek’s Cars could have been had they not lost their edge. Eclectic, eccentric and most wonderful, Embrace The Light raises the bar considerably for this young band that is clearly full of great promise for the future, yet delivers more than enough immediate pleasures for the present. Highly recommended.
