we had a proper superb one down at the Grafton Arms for our Toasted night on Saturday!
big big love to BARDS HWY and STRAY WEATHER who all absolutely stormed their sets, what a night great to put something on a touch heavier every so often, and we had a fantastic turnout too which was class to see especially in these quieter summer months!
we’ve got plenty of gigs coming up, plus more to be announced.. keep your eyes peeled on www.breadrecords.co.uk/events/ for all the info!
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Superfriends “Blimpy Boy” out this coming Friday 15th July!
we’ve covered the first single from Superfriends “How To Live Life” which was a fantastic debut single from the indie-punk outfit, really setting the scene for their upbeat yet introspective tunes – with lovely and inspiring lyricism upon the backbone of feel-good rhythms and jangly guitar riffs.
this new single “Blimpy Boy” only continues on their sound, a tune about the emotions entailed within a break-up, but flipped around to be a much more feel-good and energetic tune! the lyricism is fantastic here, it’s done so well to turn a serious and emotion situation into a positive and reflective atmosphere. you can really hear how much the band gels with each other as well, sounding so tight throughout the whole song, giving each instrument room to breathe yet working perfectly in tandem with one another. a fantastic second release from these guys!
you can find the track on Spotify once it’s released on the 15th July, or if you’re a Bandcamp user you can listen to it in full now over at https://superfriendstheband.bandcamp.com/ – even purchase it for your listening pleasure for only £2, including a remix as well. well worth checking out and buying!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the fantastic new single from The Seminals “All On You“! 🥖
following on from the release of their debut single “Peasants With Money“, they’ve come out with a no-nonsense track here that really puts them on the map as ones to watch for the future. 🤘 we love their indie-rock sound that takes from so many influences and genres, both of the singles so far have been boss!
exploding into the track with a huge guitar riff, it sounds huge from the get-go; and we love the massive energy of the track, so upbeat. the main vocal sounds amazing too, with that scouse touch in there to really show their roots! ⚡️ the chorus almost gives a massive contrast with the verse, having such a different feel to it and then suddenly pulling out a rude guitar solo before dropping back into the next verse. 😎
the energy of the tune only continues throughout, and the outro guitar solo has so much to it, really giving it a fresh breath of air – we can’t even imagine how mental this tune would sound live. might have to get them on for a gig at some point! 👊 keep your eyes out for these guys, two formidable tracks already and we can only imagine even more on the way!
big love to all the bands for performing, Hit Like A Girl were absolutely sensational – WYRES and Snake Parade smashed it too, fantastic supports and what a class one. hugely honoured to have been asked to have put this on, we love giving bands and artists the opportunities to grace the stage and especially when they come all the way from overseas!
