SOAK announces new album 'Grim Town'

After returning at the end of last year to release her brilliant comeback single 'Everybody Loves You', SOAK aka Bridie Monds-Watson has now announced her plans for a new studio album to arrive in the coming months.

The new full-length 'Grim Town' follows on from her 2015 debut LP 'Before We Forgot How To Dream', is being previewed by the new single and video for 'Knock Me Off My Feet', and is due to be released on the 26th April via Rough Trade Records.

Speaking about her new release, the frontwoman said, ‘Grim Town’ is a dystopia that I’ve created in my brain: me on the inside, processed into a pretend location. The way I could wrap my head around a lot of what I was going through was to make it feel like something quite physical and real. Once I had the idea of the album being an actual location, exploring the dynamics of this town and what it would look or sound like felt like the right way to give my mental state a personality.”
