Soccer Mommy spoke to NME backstage at Governors Ball 2022, and discussed the different approach she took to making ‘Sometimes Forever’ in comparison to her previous album, ‘Color Theory’and the band’s that inspired album’s sound.Watch our full interview above.Less than two weeks before its release, Sophie Allison explained how she and her band created a “vast” sound for their third record, and why she felt comfortable with a more stripped-back approach this time around.“I started recording music by doing it myself and it was very much about going until it’s done,” she said. “With ‘Color Theory’ specifically, we wanted to make it poppy at certain points and make it have all these transitions, that came in, in the post-live take.
This time, I really wanted it to feel like a live performance, and have this space and breadth in it.”She also discussed creating the spacious sound of the new album. “Making something feel vast, is surprisingly about having space,” Allison said.
“Less is more. With the basic tracking, when we’re all in a room playing together, we really wanted to get everything really tight and solid from there so that we could be specific and intentional about adding interesting stuff on top.”She added: “It didn’t have to get cluttered, we didn’t have to start taking pieces apart and wanting to put them back together.
You have to add space so you can have that feeling of space.”Allison also talked about the bands that inspired the sound behind, ‘Sometimes, Forever.” When we were recording, we were talking a lot about ‘80s music, a lot about The Jesus and Mary Chain, shoe-gaze stuff. We really wanted to get that sense of a live band and everything, but also these strange ambient sounds, things coming in and out

Nick Cannon really do all that? The ex-wife of “All That” and “Kenan and Kel,” star Kel Mitchell, 43, claims he once caught Cannon, 41, dressed in a cheerleader’s costume, dancing for the Nickelodeon alum on their marital bed. But Cannon is skirting the claim with comedy. “Remembering when I came home to Nick Cannon wearing my full cheerleading uniform (including the briefs),” wrote Mitchell’s ex, Tyisha Hampton, in the closed-captions of a now-viral TikTok video.“[Cannon was] doing cheers on the bed for my ex husband Kel Mitchell to cheer him up because he cheated on me,” she added in the clip, which has amassed over 756,000 views. Representatives for Mitchell did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for a comment on the trending bombshell. Cannon, however, used his trademark humor to publicly extinguish the fiery allegation. “Yep!!,” the father of nine penned in the comments section of a BallerAlert post dedicated to Hampton’s video. “Probably had the big ear of corn, a bunch of orange soda and a couple of Kid’s Choice Awards up our a- -es too!,” he said sarcastically. In response, Hampton praised “Wild ‘N Out” star for “keeping it 100,” and urged him to teach Mitchell — with whom she has two children — to “take care of all his kids.” She and Mitchell tied the knot in 1999, and divorced six years later.In her comment to Cannon, Hampton also begged, “I really need my cheerleading uniform back! A replica, something…it’s been long enough.”Unsurprisingly, social media audiences met Hampton’s eye-popping proclamation with shock and confusion. “I know what this says, but I cant quite understand what it says,” wrote a commentator.
