Just The Crust 22/02/21: WHITE NOISE – Mind’s Eye โœŠ

our feature for this week’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from WHITE NOISE, ‘Mind’s Eye’! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Off the back of their debut single last year, WHITE NOISE are back with another hard-hitting tune! “Mind’s Eye” is a real great tune, balancing heavy riffs with prolific songwriting and serious drive to the tune! A real classic windows down low, driving through the countryside and taking in the scenery track. โ˜€๏ธ

We love the little synths that are in the track (beautiful tones!) and with a real flowing chorus, this is definitely not a track to miss out on! Go and check it out over at https://open.spotify.com/track/2lL55EPPYrsypSSgfjZmQJ? ๐Ÿ„โ€โ™€๏ธ we can’t wait to see what else they’ve got in store!
