Taste Test: Subterranean Street Society let go of the past with ‘So Sorry’
The blues band finally learns to let the past go.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones
We can only move forward if we let go of the past. There’s no way around it. Vicious cycles and toxicity must fade in our rearview mirror – and then we can hope for something brighter to come over the horizon. Amsterdam blues band Subterranean Street Society manifest such a journey in very concrete terms in their new video for “So Sorry,” a gummy foot-stomper that follows a woman learning to set up boundaries between her present and her past. Filmed in the barracks of Schinkelbuurt, the black and white clip unleashes tortured spirits into the ether, letting it all dissipate in a haze of electric guitar and tears. “It’s not my fault / Entirely not my fault / That I believe,” howls Louis Puggaard-Muller into a fiery blaze. His catharsis hangs on every syllable and sends the listener careening down their own path to such freedom.
“So Sorry” is lifted from the band’s new album, Twelve Steps, out everywhere May 1.
