After announcing their signing to Rough Trade Records in May with their first-ever song ‘SWEAT’, Los Angeles six-piece The Sophs have returned with a brand new single and video, ‘DEATH IN THE FAMILY’.
A bold admission of vulnerability and moral failure, delivered over an undeniably head-noddable, fuzzed-out beat, every instrument and lyric on ‘DEATH IN THE FAMILY’ lands like a gut punch. Frontman Ethan Ramon says it’s “one of the most personal songs I’ve ever written. It confronts my complicated relationship with shame, and how, at a certain point, I had convinced myself I’d rather grieve a loved one than take any kind of accountability. Releasing it almost feels like purging those thoughts. Maybe it’s because I finally feel like I’m explaining myself clearly. Maybe I feel protected by my vulnerability. All I know is it means something to me.”
