our feature for today’s Just The Crust feature is the brand new single “The Vampire” from Double Negative 👊
originating in Bolton in 2024, the alternative-rock 4 piece have been performing across Manchester and the surrounding areas for a good while now, and have established themselves as a real presence on the local scene 👊
this new single is evidence of their innate ability to write an infectious and raw tune, with driving rhythm forming the foundation of the track, which allows for the vocal to take centre-stage and ensure the listener’s attention, complimented excellently by the lead guitar riff, which culminates in a real down-to-earth sound they’re able to call their own, using a variety of influences from different genres to hone their craft. 🎶
you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including over on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/4bKpPoamYrM8ZlwKBMn97V -well worth a listen! 🎧

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “REAR VIEW” from Chloe Charlotte 💫
over the past few years, she’s been releasing a bunch of incredible tunes, performing headline shows across Manchester and making a real mark on the scene, ensuring her as one to keep an eye out for in 2026 👊
this new track sounds fantastic – it’s got a proper grungey atmosphere to it, with a pop-infused influence that compliments the track expertly, and singalong lyrics that only prove her songwriting ability, being able to portray raw and personal emotions in image-inducing lyricism that’s not only able to paint a real picture of feeling but make for a singalong anthem that’s relatable and musically adept. there’s a lovely soundscape to the track that compliments the songcraft superbly; it’s an incredible listen and we can’t wait to hear what comes next 🌙
you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/album/4jZOKfLBaN75QawoGtPExl – make sure to check it out 🎧
