The Snuts have released new single 'PTS', the penultimate track written for upcoming fourth album Joy In Short Moments. Born out of the collective celebration that followed Scotland's World Cup qualification win over Denmark, the song grew into a meditation on self-belief, generational trauma and forgiveness, themes Cochrane felt were rarely given space.
Speaking on the single, Jack Cochrane says:
"It was the penultimate track we wrote for the record. I remember stumbling our way through it the morning after Scotland beat Denmark to reach the World Cup: pure elation, a shooting star of collective celebration. It's incredible the emotions something as trivial as football can spark.
"We started digging into why belief in yourself is so often absent in young people where we're from, and the song became an outlet to explore things I feel get left at the bottom of the 'important to talk about' pile: growing up without a positive role model, generational trauma.
"'PTS' is a remedy to melancholy, an end to past-life pain. It's a song for widespread forgiveness, of others and of yourself."
Joy In Short Moments is out October 23rd via Happy Artist Records in partnership with Virgin Music Group. Pre-order the album here.
