Darkwave fans worldwide will be thrilled to have SORE in their camp. Hailing from London, the talented and bold creative has recently unveiled her latest effort, ‘NOW IM MUCH BETTER’, a nugget of carefree, melancholic darkwave served on a contemporary platter, all drenched in SORE’s fiery, striking vocals. Featuring lush guitar tones, cold drum patterns and an overall hazy, lo-fi vibe, the record reiterates the project’s alternative and daring character, with the gifted songstress revealing her creative, fringe-leaning aura.
‘NOW IM MUCH BETTER’ ships with a liminal music video, a visual asset that perfectly complements the song’s personal, gloomy storytelling, always infused with a very stylish flair. Written as an antidote to a heartbreak, the single aims to spark a new, glorious era for SORE. As she explains: “Following a heartbreak, I took a trip to Seoul, Korea and experienced a different culture, and it helped influence this song and put my mind at ease to create something so beautiful like my music video.”
The bittersweet nature of the music video is perfectly reflected in the song. “Even if you’re sad, you can still find happiness in the little things”, SORE eloquently states. That’s perhaps why ‘NOW IM MUCH BETTER’ feels rather dancing and weirdly euphoric. Even when in pain, one has to celebrate life, perhaps paving the way for acceptance and betterment.
