New Jam from Soft On Crime

I’ve covered Irish outfit Soft on Crime quite a bit over the last few years, so of course when the group put out a new little ditty I had to make sure you all were in on it. There’s this sense of longing and bewilderment that seems to creep out through the vocals, which upon first listen might share some similarities to Bob Pollard. That sensation allows the group, who traditionally employ raucous noise, to settle into a bit of slow burn, highlighting their adherence to pop standards of our day. You can actually stream all of their Noz Mat EP, although it doesn’t officially come out until December!

Soft on Crime Prep New Suite LP, Share Telex Eyes

You can already find a slew of great LPs you’ll want to fawn over in 2023 on the slates, but might I suggest you add Dublin’s Soft on Crime to that mix? Today we get to share the group’s new single, along with the announcement of their debut, New Suite. For some reason, this track takes the modern power-pop vibes, though it feels like its being spun through the story of Elvis Costello. It’s got this sort of jittering hipness to it, frantic in all the right spots, then bursting with the hooks when you hit the chorus. It’s a reminder that rock n’ roll can still be a hell of a lot of fun. Look for New Suite to drop in February of next year!
