breakkaway have shared an official video for their new song “I know.” The track, which features Softcult, will appear on the band's new EP, “It all feels the same from afar,” which will be out on November 13. Jessica Li commented on the single:
“Softcult is a band I’ve been listening to for a couple of years now, and when we finished ‘I know,’ I immediately thought of them and how the dreamy, ethereal quality of their voices would add so much to the song. When we heard them on the track, we felt that ‘I know’ had finally clicked into place. Their intricately arranged harmonies added so much texture and truly made the song feel like a layered dialogue between two people who were both feeling and suffering deeply, creating a much more complex dynamic than that of just one person hurting on their own.”
The band also commented on the EP:
“[The EP centers on the] grief of outgrowing things that once defined you while still yearning for them. It represents how, with enough time and distance, both the good and bad moments of coming of age come to be viewed with a certain detached romanticism."
Case Fadell added:
“It’s a love letter to the past few years of our lives. We’ve all changed so much since we started, and this EP reflects that evolution in a way that is singular to us and this time period. We pushed ourselves to create something greater than the sum of its parts, and I’m so proud of this body of work. We’re so happy to announce and soon share this with the world.”
