Softcult have dropped a new single, Naive

Softcult have just unveiled a brand-new single, Naive.

The track arrives in the wake of the exciting news that the duo have finally finished work on their highly-anticipated debut album (so watch this space), and hears the band tackling the topic of “coming to the painful realisation that the person, idea or reality we trusted and believed in never really existed in the first place.

“This song is about the moment the scales fall from our eyes after we realise we’ve been romanticising someone or the idea of someone. After this moment we’re no longer able to see them or the world as innocently as we did before.”

Watch the video for Naive below:
