The Soft Moon’s new tune “Him” features a pulsating groove and an eerie falsetto. “Him” is also  accompanied by (fish narc) who completely ruins whatever the track had going for it as it derails and heads straight into the gutter.  Although I’m not a fan of the tune, there’s a chance that you might be.  You also might like endurance tests so go for it and listen.  

Today The Soft Moon (aka multi instrumentalist Luis Vasquez) announces plans to unleash Exister, the powerful, vulnerably therapeutic new full-length album, due out September 23rd, 2022 on Sacred Bones Records . With the announcement comes the jolting lead single “ Him ” which features a collaboration with fish narc , who also appears with Vasquez in the accompanying turbulent video directed by Wiggy & Nick Blanco. 

Luis Vasquez shares: “ I struggle with ‘good side/bad side’ endlessly. ‘Him’ recounts that battle, expressing the turmoil it brings into my life.” 

Regarding the video, Vasquez goes on to say: “I am persistently running away from something devilish on my shoulders tempting me into mischievous behavior portrayed by fish narc.”
