California metalcore quartet Of Mice & Men have announced their new EP, Bloom, to be released on May 28th via SharpTone Records. The announcement also came with a new single for the EP’s title track, “Bloom”, and an accompanying video which you can find below:
The EP comes as the second part of an EP series the band plans to release, that will eventually comprise the band’s new album. The first release in the series being the Timeless EP, which was released back in February via SharpTone.
“‘Bloom’ is a song about grieving the death of a family member,” says OM&M singer and bassist Aaron Pauley. “It’s about understanding, through that loss, that grief is not only love in its most visceral and wildest form, but that it’s also the ultimate price we pay to experience such love. To know profound grief is to have known profound love. Nothing and no one lasts forever. Love isn’t a bouquet of plastic flowers; it’s watching the petals fall.”
As with the Timeless EP, the Bloom EP artwork was created by the iconic Derek Hess and can be viewed below, along with the EP’s track listing.
