Doom pop group SOM unveil Billie Eilish cover, announce Katatonia support tour

SOM – the doom-pop group made up of current and former members of Constants, Junius, and Caspian – have unveiled their cover of Billie Eilish’s 'Everything I Wanted' with an accompanying video.

“We’ve been obsessed with this song since it came out,” confesses the band. “It’s incredible how something so tender and gentle can also be a total gut-punch. It’s got these inescapable melodies that wash over you with both awe-inspiring sadness and a grounding feeling of hope. And that makes it a perfect fit with the SOM aesthetic — it’s intoxicating, powerful, and it really spans the emotional gamut. We want to really honour this song as best we can. It felt like all we could do to be closer to this song was to do a version of it that brings out the heaviness that we feel listening to the original.”

SOM’s Billie Eilish cover follows their Awake EP, released earlier this year, which combined two exclusive originals with remixes by collaborators Holy Fawn, Hisself (Johnny Dang of O’Brother), U Dye (Marshall Gallagher of Teenage Wrist), and Giuseppe Capolupo (The Devil Wears Prada). SOM’s Awake EP is a doom-pop triumph. Its concise compositions balance the gritty riffs of Deftones with airy, Tame Impala-esque vocal lines, just as primed for rock radio success as they are for shoegaze-loving connoisseurs.

SOM will support Katatonia and Sólstafir on their Twilight Burials tour through the UK and Europe. The dates run from January 21st 2022 through February 26th 2022. Full dates below:
