Blanket are a British post-metal and shoegaze-influenced band formed in Blackpool, England. They are known for their atmospheric, emotionally driven sound that blends post-metal weight with ambient textures and alternative rock sensibilities.
Over their career, Blanket have developed a distinctive style combining heavy, immersive soundscapes with introspective songwriting and melodic depth.
Blanket’s sound is defined by layers of reverb-drenched guitars, dynamic shifts between quiet introspection and crushing heaviness, and a strong emphasis on mood and texture. Their music often balances clarity and distortion to create a rich, enveloping atmosphere.
The band are known for crafting songs that feel both intimate and expansive, merging post-metal structure with shoegaze aesthetics.

Modern Escapism (2021) – critically praised release expanding their sound with heavier dynamics and refined production.
Ceremonia (2024) – more expansive and immersive album emphasising atmosphere, emotion, and sonic depth.
Blanket are part of the modern wave of atmospheric and post-metal bands, gaining recognition for their ability to combine heaviness with melody and introspection.
