Soak announces new album, If I Never Know You Like This Again
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 26 January 2022
Soak – aka Bridie Monds-Watson – has announced details about their third album ‘If I Never Know You Like This Again’, which is set for release in May. Ahead of that, tour dates begin next week and new single, ‘Last July’, is out now.
“This record is the most accurate picture of me”, says Monds-Watson. “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”.
“I hate the idea of getting older and forgetting, or having a family and not being able to perfectly explain a memory or a feeling”, they add. “I always want to remember exactly how I felt at a certain moment”.
‘If I Never Know You Like This’ is out on 20 May, with tours either side of that date. And here they are:
