Just The Crust 03/07/23: Shadows Of A Silhouette – My Hunny ⚡️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Shadows Of A Silhouette “My Hunny“! 👊

we’re huge fans of these guys, having covered their music a bunch in the past and even having them perform for us last year as part of our gigs down at the Grafton Arms ☀️

this new tune is a feel-good anthem, still in the indie dimension of their previous tunes but you can really hear the more mellow elements shine through. with exquisite and intense lyricism, you can really hear the passion put into their music – the instrumentation behind it ties it all together so well, with the drums providing a gorgeous rhythm to the track, the loose guitar pattern and driving bassline creating a real groove and the lead guitar giving a lovely final touch to the track. another banger under the belt for these guys! 💥

you can find it on all streaming platforms, including Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/6EuOHKKHN8mLHVwlKli6zE – well worth checking out! make sure you get the chance to see these guys live, incredible stage presence!

Just The Crust 26/06/23: HWY – Exit Love 🤘

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Exit Love” from HWY! ⚡️

we were massive fans of their first two singles, which really set them as ones to watch on the North West scene – we’ve also had them perform for us at our Toasted gigs and for Halloweezer and their live sets are extraordinary, with an incredible stage presence and a real ability to move a crowd 👊

this new single sees them expand on their grungey sound, with gorgeous guitar melodies throughout which create a lovely soundscape and atmosphere for the track – the calm groove is a beautiful backdrop for the vocals to soar over, and Ryan’s vocal sounds spectacular here; maintaining control over the track and as it opens up to the chorus, his power and rage is only complimented by the instrumentation, a ferocious outburst of energy that we’ve come to see with all of HWY’s releases. the dynamic of this track is lush, there’s so much energy and restraint all at once – the breakdown is a serene breath of fresh air from the chaos and power of the rest of the track, and the guitar riffs are second to none. yet another incredible release from these guys! 💥

you can find the tune on all streaming sites, including Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/track/62rxtnfmc2zRNab1juIuFD – it’s well worth a listen, there’s a real special future in store for these guys. 🙌
