The band weaves in old, familiar sounds with new, experimental styles in the lead-up to their second LP, ‘It Was A Moment’
Indie alternative band SOS reflects on endings in their new single, “Yumi & The Apocalypse,” the carrier single of their forthcoming sophomore album, It Was A Moment, out on March 28th.
Blending old, familiar sounds with new, experimental production, “Yumi & The Apocalypse” hones in on SOS’s strong storytelling, often centered on personal and serving as an avatar of collective experiences, delicately balancing their tendency towards cynicism (or, “a stroke of sadness,” as they describe it) with a more mellowed maturity. While the song is about a breakup, “Yumi” tells it with more grace. As the band puts it, “It’s with less spite and more acceptance.”
