about

OGR-023 // We are pleased to present you with Philly's premier folk fuzz rock band, Soft Idiot, and their new album offering "Some Captured Light" created by the mastermind that is Justin Roth. There's a little of something for everyone in this album. Fans of acts like Hello Shark or Nana Grizol will instantly fall in love with the soundscape that Justin has created here. Gut wrenching and honest lyrics with even better instrumentals to help guide you through the journey. Soft Idiot is back in full force!

"Songs about birds and mammals mostly. Don't read too far into it. Places here and there. Early 2021 in a fit of depression, I thought I was done making records. The well was dry and I sunk into myself as far as I possibly could. Between then and now, I thought again- I made some new songs and demoed them all out and then re-recorded them into this resulting record. It's a silly thing to want to be an artist. It's a weird and difficult lifestyle that I don't understand but that I think I want regardless. Lots of feelings are contained here- disillusionment, depersonalization, hope and friendship. Imagined stories to explain emotions. I don't know what I hope, but I hope for something and that strikes me as important. I don't know where to start, so I guess I'll start here."
