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. 🙌
