SOAK has released new track "Swear Jar" as a third taster of their If I Never Know You Like This Again album.
"Swear Jar" follows previous outings "purgatory" and "last july", and SOAK, real name Bridie Monds-Watson, has also released an acoustic version of their new song.
Monds-Watson says of the track, "I felt so disconnected from myself and life that I was starting to question if I’d ever truly been present or if I’d always been on autopilot."
If I Never Know You Like This Again will follow SOAK's 2019 album Grim Town, and was written during the pandemic.
According to Monds-Watson, their new album is made up of "song-memories". They added, "This record is the most accurate picture of me. I felt no pressure at all, it was almost like I was ranting as I was writing. When I was looking to the past, it was as though I had a big lottery ball of all my recent memories and I would just randomly select which one I wanted to unpack. It helped me to process my past."
