SOFT KILL

“Savior” PROFOUND LORE

-

May 11. Portland Oregon’s SOFT KILL return with the triumphant follow up full length “Savior” to be released by Profound Lore Records on May 11, bringing their unique blend of gloom, laced with pop charm and flawless songwritin­g that transcends the post punk genre. SOFT KILL have matured into a powerhouse, effortless­ly combining genres with raw emotional storytelli­ng. From the pop perfection of ‘Trying Not to Die’ to the swelling and crushing guitars on ‘Hard Candy’ to the unrelentin­g dirge of ‘Bunny Room’, “Savior” is a creative tour de force. Drawing from a diverse musical palette, “Savior” is influenced by early U2, Gun Club, The Replacemen­ts and a requiem to Tom Petty. (RIYL: Drab Majesty, The Cure, Chameleons, Joy Division etc)
