Soccer Mommy has shared a video for her new single, “Shotgun,” alongside the announcement of her forthcoming album, Sometimes, Forever.
Out June 24th, Sometimes, Forever was produced by Oneohtrix Point Never’s Daniel Lopatin. Today’s release is a perfect preview of the album. With layered, airy guitars and dreamy vocals, “Shotgun” channels the sounds of early 2000s pop rock. Lyrically, “Shotgun” draws parallels between romance and a chemical high (without the comedown). The accompanying video, directed by Kevin Lombardo, it comes packed with gritty, colourful shots of Soccer Mommy performing in a picturesque bedroom.
“‘Shotgun’ is all about the joys of losing yourself in love,” Soccer Mommy’s Sophie Allison explains. “I wanted it to capture the little moments in a relationship that stick with you.”
Watch the video for “Shotgun” below.
Serving as the follow-up to Color Theory, the album sees Soccer Mommy cementing her signature sound. Drawing on the past with a modern experimental twist, this album is sure to be packed with some melancholic anthems.
Much like on “Shotgun,” Sometimes, Forever is partially inspired by the push and pull between desiring to make art that’s meaningful, while also pursuing it as a career.
