    Album number 3 is another enjoyable if ever so slightly underwhelming listen from SOAK. The songwriting is good without ever being really incredible and the album does feel like a backwards step after "Grim Town". The talent is obvious but I wonder could SOAK have been pushed further by a different producer/songwriting partner to really harness it.

"If I never know you like this again" lacks the hair raising moments we've been given on previous efforts. Worth checking out for sure and it does have its moments. It may grow on me further with time but I'm already waiting for the next SOAK album hoping its a step up.… Expand

    If Grim Town focused on what mere survival looked like, then If I Never Know You Like This Again captures the gnarled frustrations and contentment alike of a life fully lived.

    Complete with dreamy guitar bends, gorgeous harmonies, and a candid lyricism that Phoebe Bridgers would be proud of, If I Never Know You Like This Again has undoubtedly delivered a hat-trick for the Derry-born artist.

    While frequently poignant, If I Never Know You Like This Again feels like a post-catharsis moment of hanging out, talking into the late hours, and making music with friends.
