Welcome Strawberry – Desperate Flower (2025)
Review:
In 2022, Welcome Strawberry released their eponymous debut full-length, which bursts with vibrant, fuzzy dream pop tinged with psychedelia. desperate flower, the sophomore album is ostensibly a concept piece about olfactory memory. It’s also the kind of record that’s so exciting, it makes you want to text all of your friends.
…This Oakland group makes kinda jangly, kinda gazey, very pretty dream pop built around songs rather than just  tons of atmosphere, though there is plenty of that, too, on lovely latest release desperate flower. A record that balances noise and experimentation with a more eccentric, patchwork style of psychedelia, the overall vibe on desperate flower is a bit more energetic than the usual slowcore-kissed fare from this part of the world. Aside from moments where the group spin pink clouds of angelic sound out of layered vocals and soft synth lines, you’ll find for the most part coruscated blasts of noise propelling the songs forward, dense sweeps of guitar, climbing choruses, and an appreciation for meticulous sonic detailing in even in the most straightforward of rock songs. — daily.bandcamp.com
