"...i can now announce that The voom Blooms' new single politics & cigarettes is this weeks winner of Fresh meat" (Zane Lowe - Radio1)

"ace!" (NME)

"refreshingly brilliant...Fiery, fierce and absolutely thrilling 4/5" (thisisfakediy.co.uk)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

"The Voom Blooms certainly made a big splash and left a lasting impression with their debut single Politics & Cigarettes, and the follow up well and truly keeps the party rockin. Anna comes on like a fresh sounding Strokes with a sing-a-long feel good chorus to die for. Over on the flip youll find the even better Models Of Soho which rides on a punky skank and eerie guitars...The Voom Blooms do exciting stuff, cant wait to hear their debut album" 5/5 (Update magazine)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

"With an all-enveloping chorus and a triumphant beat, The Voom Blooms have managed to capture raw emotion in a tidy little streamlined package, this is what the countless other indie bands are aiming for, but few seem to get to grips with. 'Anna' reconfirms our suspicions from their debut single 'Politics and Cigarettes', The Voom Blooms really are the ones to watch...a little gem." (www.caughtinthecrossfire.com)

I can't do it anymore. The daily posting is too emotionally taxing.

You cannot stop my reign of terror-based commenting!

Unless you choose not to post this! But that would be too easy, and sort of bad sportsmanship.

Ah, well, here I am again. I bet you thought I was joking.

Oh no, I never joke. Laughter is bad for the constitution.

So, have we reconsider yet? Has my daily posting whipped you into such a frenzy that you'll regroup and perhaps think of me as a new VB?

... I'd play the crumhorn and wear something alluring to both the ladies and some of the men

Take note, dear friends!

I'm going to post here every day until the end of the world or until you get back together (whichever comes first).

I see what you're doing.

The silent treatment, right? Well two can play that game.





Ok, no I can't do it any longer.

I DO take a little bit of solace that "rena" is in the song list ... is that a covert way of telling me, "hey, navy, we hear what you're saying but sometimes life is complicated and you're just a stupid legume who wears no pants and shoes with buckles on them. It's not 2003 anymore, so move on."

I miss you guys. Can't we give it one more try? Please?!

I'll be good. I won't go out anymore.

And the hookers? Never again. Seriously, never. Even if I'm in Thailand.

And the farm animals? No way. I don't do that anymore. I swear.

What we had was special. It was different. It wasn't dirty and expensive and illegal like my other relationships. Please, guys. Please?

Please?

Listen, gents, this has taken a while to sink in and I'm not trying to sound all melodramatic or nothing. But you cannot do this to me.

I was bragging about you at my car club just a few weeks ago, I said, "Tre, do not put that in the light socket! You'll electrocute yourself" but that's another story ... and then a little later I said, "Oh just you wait, I promise you that the Voom Blooms will be bigger than Oasis."

But everybody laughed at me and I ran. I ran so far away.

How can I ever face Tre (after he gets out of the hospital), Owen, Nate and Dale again?

You've made me a liar and that's one thing I told Kiera Knightly when were in bed together that's something I'll never be.
