REVIEW: Cottons – Second Hand Living Room ๐Ÿ‘Š


Manchester’s own Cottons have just released their brand new single “Second Hand Living Room“, an explosive return from the alternative-pop outfit ๐Ÿ’ฅ we’ve been huge fans of these guys for a long time now and their incredible back catalogue of releases sees another massive tune added to it!


We first had Cottons perform for us way back in 2019 or so, before the pandemic and they blew us away with their incredible stage energy, upbeat and catchy tunes, their ability to write an incredible hook and the innate chemistry within the band ๐Ÿค

You can really hear it in this new song, with gorgeous guitar melodies lacing the track – the tone is luscious, and paired with the synth lead it combines for an infectious upbeat feel!

The track has a fantastic groove behind it, with a drumbeat that feels not only confident and tight but has a real element of dynamic throughout, matching perfectly to the bassline – giving so much room within the track for the vocal to take centre stage!

It’s a real singalong tune, with the main vocal utilising a lovely melody throughout – plus, with a catchy chorus hook, intricate and descriptive lyricism, and the offset vocal melody of the second verse contrasting to the first; definitely a proper summer feel to this one! โ˜€๏ธ


you can find the track in full on all streaming platforms – it’s another incredible tune under their belt and we can’t wait to see where they go next! definitely worth checking out all of their tracks, we’ve covered their music a bunch; a fantastic band! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Just The Crust 25/03/24: Flowers of Evil – Disparate โœจ

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Flowers of EvilDisparate” with Jenny Perry, out earlier this month! ๐Ÿ’ฅ

we’ve been huge fans of Flowers of Evil since we heard their single “Cherry-AID“, a huge upbeat track that is quintessential to their sound, weaving various different influences and genres throughout their music constantly, proving their musical capabilities and efforts – always keeping it fresh and new with every release! ๐Ÿ‘Š

this new single is no different; a mellow and calming relaxed start, feeling super melodic and flowing superbly, building so well with the use of vocal harmonies, delicate melodies throughout that compliment one another, and their first single to utilise both Spanish and English! throughout the track, it changes drastically, becoming more rhythmic and heavy, opening up to huge vocals and a massive atmosphere, their use of dynamic throughout is exceptional – we can only imagine this would be incredible live, a real journey throughout the track. ๐Ÿ™Œ
