fresh off the release of his brand new single “By Your Side“, we chatted with him about his inspirations, influences and upcoming plans for the year – always lovely to get more of an insight into artists’ lives and creative journeys.
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Porky Pies” by Smoking Gives You Big Tits from their upcoming album “Guts For Starters“!
we’ve been big fans of these guys for ages, having discovered them at gigs here in Manchester over the past few years and we’re huge fans of their massive energy, and unapologetic lyrics – they’ve got a tremendous sound behind them now, giving their songs a truly ferocious rage and splendour about them!
this new single truly encapsulates their sound, opening up with a vast chaotic soundscape of distortion, taking the track by the reins and setting the scene for the song. it falls down into a jarring but infectious groove, the instrumentation working in perfect tandem to pave the way for Helen’s vocals to shine – she immediately captures your attention with her airy tone that glides across the track – and as the chorus comes in, the song comes together beautifully, picking up the pace rapidly, creating a real powerful and ferocious hook that is sure to get any listener grooving along. it’s a fantastic track and it sets the scene for the album beautifully, we can’t wait to hear more when it comes out on the 28th July!
in the meantime you can find this single on all streaming platforms, and the full music video is available to watch at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duzd74mK_RM – well worth a watch!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Pulse” from Tallulah Guard!
we’ve covered Tallulah’s music a bunch in the past, and had them perform for us a few times over the last year or so and we love their energetic and powerful songwriting style, expertly putting words into their music and relaying a variety of emotions and feeling throughout we loved the previous single “Burn“, a driving alternative rock banger reminiscent of early 90’s rock!
this new single takes a more laidback, calmer atmosphere, opening with a lovely guitar fingerstyle melody that sets the tone for the track right from the get-go. as Tallulah’s vocal comes in, you’re invited into the story they’re telling, a delicate anecdote that is softly but expertly delivered throughout, discussing their experiences with disassociation, in a poetic and intricate manner. as the track gets more intense, with a driving rhythm coming in, vocal harmonies building behind the main vocal, synth parts layering the sonic space of the track, it’s a gorgeous track that easily puts Tallulah as one to watch here in the North West.
