Wrapup
I first discovered Astro Bunny when they released their EP under the name Awesome Blossom. Just to get it out of the way, I think Awesome Blossom is a stupid name. Astro Bunny isn’t a great name either, but it is a better one. Anyway, I thought the EP was good, so I looked more into them and found out about the music they released as Astro Bunny. Their sound is sort of similar to Jane Huang at times when they go for a more rock style, but also very Carrchy-like with their slower paced songs. The vocals are decent enough. I do think she is missing something in her singing though. Like she needs just a little bit more oomph at times or more emotion at other times. Overall I don’t think they are anything amazing, but they are worth checking out.
