I'll never forget the day I stumbled across Tacoma, Washington's BOK SUNA and becoming immediately obsessed, and I'm today to give a few people who frequent this blog a similar feeling, as I'm lucky enough to premiere the first single from the upcoming full length 'Carnate' that will release via tape and 12" from Softseed Music and digitally by Play Dead on August 29th, 2025.
(2025) BOK SUNA "honest person" (from 'Carnate')
I witnessed "honest person" live before I heard the recording and I remember being completely blown away by this track. It sits right in the middle of the record and balances gorgeous vocals with instrumentals that leap out of lo-fi, landing somewhere closer to indie shoegaze with excellent recording/mixing to accentuate the amazingness that is Yuri. Oliver from Hillsboro also played drums on this album, in addition to being the engineer, helping to squeeze out all that was unnecessary and redundant. The result is a short but dense track that lulls the listener in with power and beauty, getting them to sit at the end of their seat and gripping the armrests in anticipation of what happens next, only for the song to conclude at 1:29.
