Just The Crust 31/10/22: Drian – Dreaming ⚡️

31st Oct 202231st Oct 2022artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, review, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new tune from DRIAN “Dreaming“!

their second single so far, they’ve been establishing themselves around Manchester performing and wowing audiences especially with their headline gig over at the Eagle Inn the other week! we were a big fan of their debut single and this new one only further emphasises their talent

with a huge groove to the track, with crunchy distortion lining the rhythm of the drums and the bass, it’s got a lovely soundscape to the track – plus, Jordan’s vocal ability is in full scope here as he belts out, especially in the chorus, an anthemic hook that would be sung back at them at any gig. a gorgeous guitar solo too, culminating in a fantastic breakdown that gives a proper depth to the track.

head on over to Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/5mNOU9o4RNuLdDEK066W90 to find the track in full – well worth a listen!

REVIEW: HWY – Marionette ⚡️

18th Oct 202218th Oct 2022artist, bread, local scene, new music, reviewLeave a Comment

we’re proper made up to be able to bring you this review of HWY‘s new single “Marionette“! 🤘

we had them perform back in July at The Grafton Arms as part of our Toasted night and they proper smashed it. with quality tunes, professional and striking stage presence, and the ability to keep the audience in the palm of their hand, it was an unreal event alongside Stray Weather and BARDS. amazing to see!

their debut single “Come Up” was incredible too, back in January we described it as “they’ve really started out on a high! blending elements of punk, grunge, and alternative rock, they’ve really created a gorgeous and unique sound for themselves.” we really enjoyed their first release, it paved the way for them to be seen as one of Manchester’s most exciting up-and-coming bands – blending genres to create a real lovely concoction of their own unique sound. 😎

they’ve only continued on this with the new single “Marionette” – opening the track with a huge, jolty guitar riff that precedes a massive, in-your-face intro, showing off the individual talents within the band. as the vocal comes in, it commands the track and especially with that drop on the first line from the instrumentation, which then comes back with such ferocity and power. the pre-chorus creates such a contrast to the rest of the track that comes before it, with heavenly synth sounds, matched with a gorgeous vocal that sounds so delicate and intimate, only to open up to a massive chorus that is packed with so much passion, every instrument playing its part in unison and showing the talent and creativity that the band has to offer.

these two singles so far from HWY have been incredible, and have set a real standard for them – definitely one of the ones to watch here in the North West. check out their music over on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/2vwjiY3CQUtVvwLaXewiB0 – well worth a listen! they’re also performing for us at Zombie Shack on the 27th for our Zombie Prom event with Thunder and the Giants and more! 🍞

Just The Crust: Pizza Crunch – That Serene Age ☀️

3rd Oct 20223rd Oct 2022artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, review, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new album from Pizza Crunch “That Serene Age“!

we’re massive fans of these guys, having covered their music plenty of times in the past and with each release they smash out a huge banger, always quality stuff. they’ve made waves across Scotland with their sound and this album only continues with that trend!

the album contains some of their previous singles, which we’ve had on repeat over the past few months including “Young Excitement” “Romanticised Past” and “Wilting Youth” but this full release really gels the tracks together, with the addition of some brilliant tunes that really compliment the singles, giving a real continuous identity to the release and expanding on their sound even more.

with luscious soundscaping and dreamy guitar riffs, they’ve managed to create a beautiful sounding tracklist that flows so well into each of the tunes, the atmospheric feel of “Insignificant” really flows so well into the contrast of the next track and this is a huge constant within the album. well worth a listen in full!

head on over to Spotify to find the album in full – it’s available on all streaming sites and there’s also some music videos on their YouTube! get on it

Just The Crust 26/09/22: The Battery Farm – Wooden Spoon Number ⚡️

26th Sep 202226th Sep 2022artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, review, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from The Battery Farm “Wooden Spoon Number“!

another in a fantastic line of tunes from them – they’ve had so many unreal releases, we loved their album last year “Dirty Den’s March of Suffering“, full of huge riffs and anthemic tunes.

this new tune continues in their recognisable signature sound, opening with a huge rhythm section and a unique and familiar vocal from Benjamin – with his songwriting style shining through with the lyrics, a real great writer here and with a proper down to earth style from him. the synth line really brings the track together as well, really gels it all together superbly. the breakdown is massive as well, we can imagine that this would sound absolutely gigantic live!

you can find it on all streaming platforms – or catch the full music video over on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB9yaa38RxA well worth a listen! another incredible release for them, we can’t wait to hear more.
