Shoffy returns with the smooth sound of “Cool Again.”
The latest track off his sophomore album, Lenses, which was released in November, is a laid-back walk through heartbreak. The song balances electronic-pop and dark house beats as Shoffy’s vocals slide in with casual melancholy: “I feel like this is a bad one / Racked up too many mistakes / Thought you were in for the long run / Now you’re just another heartbreak.”
The music video’s quirky imagery is a perfect match for the song’s simple charm. Disparate scenes, from a church altar to a tanning bed, show unconnected individuals dancing by themselves in cool lighting, as Shoffy’s refrain remains upbeat but emotionally frank: “I know I said / We’ll be fine / But that was then / And it’s a lie.”
Shoffy (a.k.a Alex Shofler) has impressed listeners with his blend of electronic, indie, pop, and R&B music since he switched careers from being a financial analyst to full-time musician. Since the release of his self-titled debut album, he’s racked up well over 100 million streams on Spotify alone. “Cool again” delivers more of his eclectic sound with an emotional weight that feels organic, as the chorus repeats, “It might take a little longer / For us to be cool again.”
