Psychedelic rock duo SORRYNOTSORRY have returned with their new single, “Disappear.”
A slow, ambient track about loss and heartbreak, the single is the duo’s last teaser for their upcoming album, The Other Side, which comes out next month.
Mixed and Mastered by Zach Kornhauser (Portugal. The Man, Kelly Clarkson), the song sees SORRYNOTSORRY at their most vulnerable, using vocals both at an almost-whisper and a near-shout. The fuzzy, detuned guitar adds to the lost, confused atmosphere, as ghostly strings and quiet, beeping keyboards fill in the rest of the soundscape.
Altogether, it creates a track that feels like an internal scream, both crying out in private pain and stoically tearing up where others can see you. Vocalist Samantha Dagnino said of the track: “If you pay close attention, you can hear the emotion in my voice. I didn’t replace the vocals in the studio even though I was sobbing while recording the song. I was singing from a broken heart”.
The emotion definitely comes through, giving the song a sense of palpable grief until it reaches its final screeching end. It’s both dark and shimmering, and serves as more proof that SORRYNOTSORRY’s Samantha Dagnino and Andrés Cottin are each other’s perfect creative partner.
