softbloom is an atmospheric duo from Budapest experimenting along the lines of shoegaze, dreamy soft pop, and doom. The project was born in 2024 by Imola Szabó (vocals, guitar) and Péter Stanfel (drums). Their songs largely deal with the difficulties of relationships and disillusionment with the world. Although Imola’s songs are structural, Péter’s jazz-rooted playing defines the final result. In their unique sound, dreamlike softness meets the weight of reality.
I crave change But stutter when I get it I am wrong on so many levels I dare you to make nonsense I crave change But stutter when I get it Inflated ball in my chest And in my stomach I might as well I might as well I dare you to make nonsense I crave change But stutter when I get it I can't move my fingers I might as well I might as well I might as well just quit
Left behind, lied to Not looking ahead Bumped on the head Grabbed by the leg And pulled down from levitating I'm not going back to forget I'm going back to pick a fight I'm taken by a tide and I'm pulled back Underneath the wave Your wave and I'm drowning Grab me, pull me out of the ocean Squeeze me 'til the point of complete dryness Anger me 'til a vein pops open on my head I'm going back to start a fight Don't tell me to calm down I'm going back to start a fight Don't tell me to calm down
I can't find myself I can't find myself I can't find myself If I'm being honest I am losing my head
Did you flick the cricket off my head? It landed on a dustless spot on the shelf On it's back Upside down I am a little lost You're smelling all her flowers wrong And I still ask Will you come? 'I'm not going, little cricket I'm gone'
There's many reasons I'm in my bed I can't quite get up and do my thing I'm mostly waiting for someone to grab me Take me by the ears and shout at me I can't help it Can't help it but feel powerless There's many reasons I am sad I'm mostly waiting for days to pass I'm wasting life getting high I'm wasting time with you child I can't help it Can't help it but feel powerless There's many reasons I am mad I see you everywhere Even when you're not there Just get out of my head and sight I've wasted enough precious time I can't help it
I'll eat you up I lick you up I chew you up Until you're soft I need your love I need your touch Don't push me off I'm up above If I were to fall Lick me back up I need your love I need your touch I'll eat you up I lick you up I chew you up Until you're soft I'm a little shy in the light Just let me switch off my mind
I'll see you again in my mind I'll find you are the light In this minefield I'm blind It wouldn't hurt to touch you Feel you inside out Run my hands all over you I find it hard to See you only then and now I'll find you in my sleep Casually holding me It wouldn't hurt to touch you Feel you inside out Run my hands all over you I find it hard to See you only in my mind I'll be fine Just take off the weight Help me out, I am tired
- softbloom: the weakening fear of things not lasting makes me not want to do anything but sit in silence
0:00/6:55I watch the moon disappear slowly Behind the branches I turn without moving Sitting still, not thinking Am I still breathing? I'm not missing anything if I'm not living Being alone feels heavy and easy Am I still breathing? Or do I just let out huge sighs? Let me get used to it I'm not missing anything if I'm not leaving
