Just The Crust 05/08/24: Lunar Sounds – Better Than This 🌙

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Leeds-based Lunar SoundsBetter Than This“! 👊

after performing at various venues across the UK over the past few years, and releasing a run of singles and EPs since 2016, they’re back with a brand new track that packs a punch right from the get-go! 💫

you can really hear the grunge, the riot-grrrl influence throughout this track – with luscious power chords, basslines and hard-hitting drums laying the foundation for the track, a main guitar riff that echoes throughout, adding tension and drive to the tune, and group vocals, harmonies that give a real energy to it all. it sounds fantastic, and with personal, impactful lyricism, it’s set them up as ones to watch for the year 🌜

you can check out the track in full on all streaming platforms, including Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/3Oi3URwioFR0h6VQC0ARbA – give it a listen! 🎧

Just The Crust 08/07/24: Mad By Mourning – Black Car 👊

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Mad By MourningBlack Car“! 👊

we covered their previous single last year, “Creature Of Habit“, and we were astounded by their gothic, industrial sound – yet infusing a range of various influences, to truly create something that they can call their own – you can hear punk, metal, emo and chock-full of lyrical ingenuity, catchy hooks; it truly set them as ones to watch! 😊

this new single begins in a more moody, darker vein compared to the previous, with a riff heavy, distorted atmosphere in the opening stage – it gives a load of room for the main vocal to take command in the first verse, demanding the listener’s attention – utilising the soundscape effectively, and with a fantastic, catchy and lyrically adept chorus – they’ve only gone beyond our expectations for this one. the grunginess and heaviness of the track is perfectly balanced with the more atmospheric elements of it, a lovely use of dynamic and contrast – fantastic to see, well worth a listen!! 🎧 (also with a luscious guitar solo too!)

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, and there’s a visualiser available to watch on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYhj11V7-g0 – check it out! 🌙
