Just The Crust 28/07/25: The Empire Police – Crawling Distance ๐Ÿ‘Š

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Crawling Distance” from The Empire Police! ๐Ÿค

a familiar face on the North West scene, they’ve been making waves for a good few years now, having put out a bunch of incredible tunes, and performing all across the region and selling out shows on the regular in their Preston hometown ๐ŸŽถ

this new track sounds fantastic, blending their earlier indie-rock roots with more metal-infused, heavier elements that really paves the way for their anthemic, driving brand of alternative rock – with expert lyricism, they’re able to paint a picture with their lyrics, matched with instrumentation that compliments the wordcraft fantastically, the track ebbs and flows and truly feels like a journey with the band. it’s a brilliant listen! ๐Ÿ‘Š

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/7vmO1PCZTXJt1oVHl0FKIo – well worth checking out along with their full discography ๐ŸŽง

The Wrap: June 2025 ๐ŸŒฎ

we’ve got our brand-new edition of The Wrap feature! ๐Ÿค

we’ve got in-depth reviews of some of our favourite releases of June, yet another amazing month – check out all of our reviews below โฌ‡๏ธ


Manchester-based pyncher have just put out their new single “At The Seaside“! they’ve had an incredible run of music lately, and we’re huge fans of them – this new tune sounds fantastic, a real cool, effortless groove behind the track, with a 90’s alternative nostalgia feel thrown in there. the song starts moody and stripped-back, yet opens up to a proper wall of sound feel, with a lovely offering of distortion, proving themselves as a must-watch band for 2025!


Remote have just dropped “Five Thousand Miles“! we were huge fans of their previous EP, and this new single sounds gorgeous, a real melodic and intricate acoustic track, that’s got lovely vocal melodies, a proper jazzy and soulful feel behind it, and a lovely rhythm section that gives the track a real flow of life to it. it’s a lovely song of romance, with image-inducing lyricism that really proves their songwriting ability – definitely one to listen to!


Atheana just released their new single “Burden“! this is their first release of the year, following a few singles in 2022-23, and it’s a fantastic new offering, giving us a proper heavy tune – it’s got walls of distortion behind it, driving rhythm and powerful and commanding vocals! they’ve got a fantastic balance between heavier elements and more lighter, airy sections, really creating something that’s truly true to themselves – a great listen!


another of our favourites on the scene, Luke Hart has just put out his second single “Till Again She Is Mine“! we’re huge fans of Luke’s songwriting ability, his talent to be able to craft and convey emotion always blows us away, and his honest and raw songwriting is second to none – this new single is true evidence of it! the track sounds gorgeous, a lovely balance of raw piano and vocals, and enforces a real focus on his lyricism – it’s a gorgeous listen!


Chloe Foy has just released her second album “Complete Fool“! it’s a gorgeous album, a lovely balance of pop, folk and indie genres, that come together effortlessly to create something that is truly unique to herself – with a real ear for a catchy melody, beautiful vocal harmonies, you can really hear the effort and passion put into the creation of each tune. she has a real ability to put raw passion into each of her lyrics, and not only make something that is artistically lovely, but also catchy and relatable. it’s an incredible listen!


Manchester post-punk outfit Pomona have just dropped their new single “Double Yellows“! it’s a real in-your-face tune, opening up straight away with a no-nonsense guitar riff, driving drums and bass, and commanding vocals, they’re not pulling any punches with this tune. with an anthemic chorus, a proper singalong hook, punchy verses and a gorgeous, atmospheric, and dynamic middle eight, they’ve ensured their musicality and songwriting talent is on full display with this track.


Manchester-based Tesni has just released the new single “Nothingโ€™s New Again“! it’s a gorgeous acoustic ballad, complete with expert lyricism, with raw and descriptive songwriting ability, a luscious guitar melody paving the base of the track, and an infectious, driving rhythm section that compliments the song so well. Tesni’s vocal glides across the instrumentation superbly, flowing like a silky river and utilising melodies to really create something that sounds so beautiful!


Manchester indie-rock outfit Glacmanis have just dropped their second album “Radiomanis“! we had them perform for us in the past and we loved their energetic performance, their quality, catchy tunes and there’s a real feel-good factor to their music. this new album has a much more acoustic-y feel to it, delving more into indie-folk elements, and with lovely vocal melodies and harmonies throughout, gorgeous guitar licks and driving rhythm, there’s a whole bunch of fantastic tunes on this album – well worth checking out!


it’s been yet another fantastic month, with so many amazing songs coming out; plus, so many that we didn’t cover – thanks to everyone who has checked this out, and we hope you enjoyed it! ๐Ÿค˜

make sure you head on down to open mics, gigs, support local music and arts and keep your scenes going! ๐Ÿ˜Š all music, videos and images remain copyright of their respective owners. ๐Ÿž

the Derbyshire-based outfit have been making a real name for themselves over the past few years, having released a string of fantastic singles, and performing across the East Midlands and even taking to the stage at Y Not Festival in a few weeks! โ˜€๏ธ

we’ve covered their music a few times in the past, and we’re huge fans of their upbeat, down-to-earth folky sound, and this new single is no different – with a real gritty texture from the get-go, it’s got relatable, grounded lyricism, and you can hear the musicianship within the band, how well they gel together and that they’re truly creating something unique to themselves. this track has a real catchy hook, a proper singalong anthem – it’s a great listen and another lovely tune under their belts! ๐Ÿ™Œ

you can find the single on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/4q8mGeWOwGAJ123xHJvkVF – well worth checking out! ๐ŸŽง
