Softcult have unveiled a brand-new single and video, Heaven.

As they come to the end of a massive year including the release of their excellent 4/5-rated See You In The Dark EP in March, the duo – Mercedes and Phoenix Arn-Horn – have got another tune for us before 2023 completely wraps up.

And, according to the band, this one “describes a world where everyone is accepted for who they are, where one’s background or identity does not dictate how they are perceived by society, where privilege and advantages are recognised and shared to build stronger communities, and a society that celebrates diversity, difference, and otherness as strengths.”

Watch the video for Heaven – directed and edited by Mercedes, and produced by Phoenix – below.
