The Wrap: May 2026 ๐ŸŒฎ

we’re back with our next edition of The Wrap! ๐Ÿ’ฟ

we’ve got reviews covering some of our favourite releases of May, and it’s been another incredible month of music! you can check out all of our reviews below โฌ‡๏ธ


Scottish songwriter Wave Of The Flood have just put out their debut album “FortyFive” – celebrating the 45rpm vinyl format, the album explores themes of love, vulnerability, and the human connection. Each song is exquisitely crafted, and you can hear the passion and care put into each of the tracks – with gorgeous instrumentation and intricate lyricism, it’s a lovely listen!


Country-pop artist Amy Jo has just released “Hold Your Horses” – a delicate and intimate track that relates to the theme of vulnerability and belonging, it’s got a lovely guitar melody throughout that really compliments the delicate nature of her vocal, which really shines through on this track, feeling like a conversation with a close friend. Such a fantastic track!


Liverpool-based indie-rock outfit White Ash have returned with their second single “Blue Skies“! It’s got a real infectious energy behind it, with a driving groove from the rhythm section, allowing for plenty of room for the vocal to take command, and with gorgeous guitar riffs throughout, anthemic singalong lyrics and a real feel-good energy, it’s set them as ones to watch for the year!


We were looking forward to this one for a while, as Mina My just put out her single “The Kill“. her ability to write a down-to-earth and grounded song is second to none, being able to convey feeling and emotion in a real poetic manner through music – and this song is real proof of that. it’s a driving yet intimate track with such a quality sense of dynamic within it, and it’s one on repeat for us!


Another familiar face for us, Nat Dempsey has just released his new single “Apparency“! we’re always in awe of his songwriting ability, with such a personal and raw emotional manner, and his guitarwork always effortlessly complimenting his lyrics – and this track sounds fantastic! it’s got a real sensibility to it, gorgeous production and a real intimate feel to it. an incredible new track from the Cumbrian songwriter!


Manchester-based blues-grunge outfit The Harlots have just put out their latest single “Mean Red Spider” – it’s got a proper no-nonsense attitude to it, opening up with huge guitar riffs and driving rhythm which set the scene for the track to balance into the main melody line, opening up space for the vocal to take centre-stage, preceded by a huge guitar solo and breakdown section – it sounds sensational, such a great listen!


Leeds-based alt-rockers Dulakes have just released their latest track “Thunderstorms“! following the release of their debut EP, they’ve attained a real following for their gorgeous blend of alternative, shoegaze and grunge, crafting their own dynamic sound, and this track sounds mega. at times it has an ambient feel to it, a spacey atmosphere that then drops into a real driving and flowing groove – all instruments working in perfect unison to truly convey real passion into their music!


Manchester-based dream-pop outfit Marie Franc have released their newest single “Pendle Hill“. there’s a real authentic atmosphere to this tune right from the start, haunting melodies and tones that set the scene expertly. the verses creep along with a proper groove, allowing for plenty of space for Rachel’s powerful vocal to take command of the listeners’ attention, there’s gorgeous melodies flittering throughout the soundscape, and the opening up to the grungier wall-of-sound drive invokes a real grandeur that truly escalates the track to another level. an incredible listen!


it’s been another fantastic month, with so many amazing tracks coming out – plus, so many that we didn’t cover!
thanks to everyone who has checked this out! ๐Ÿค˜

Just The Crust 29/06/26: Superfriends – Turn To Crime ๐ŸŒ™

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Turn To Crime” from Superfriends ๐ŸŽถ

we covered their previous EP “Superfriends Are Online” back in 2023, and we loved their energetic, infectious energy present within every track, and they’ve managed to translate and expand upon their signature sound effortlessly with this new release ๐Ÿ”ˆ

the track opens with an upbeat and driving guitar melody, that really sets the scene for the track, yet with the energetic and jangly tone there’s a real contrast lyrically, with a stark and dark look at modern society. the track’s main hook “can I turn to crime, cause I want out of this sucker’s life” reflects a bleak outlook of the current situation, yet their ability to convey that anger and distress into a hopeful and positive energy is real proof of their musical talent. it’s a fantastic listen and we can’t wait to hear what else they have in store! ๐Ÿ‘Š

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, and there’s a full music video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/ZwADQNjGGhs ๐ŸŽง

all of our features, reviews, music and more can be found on our website at www.breadrecords.co.uk ๐Ÿž
