HEating is the band’s latest single, a fast-paced and post-punk exploration of the inescapable cost off living crisis. What feels at first like a fun and perhaps quirky anthem and performance, soon evolves into a boldly evocative and devotedly heavy ode to the painful decisions being made by millions of families and individuals across the UK. ‘HEating or eating’ resounds from between the fierce crash of the drums and the chaotic meandering of power chords and bass.

The album as an artform, true rock as a force of undying escapism, plus lyrical sensitivity – it’s a rare combination, but Edge have captured the essence of all of this, with the superb new album Latency, Vol. 1.
Carving out their own distinct sound and style as thoughtful songwriters and alternative rock musicians, Washington DC band Waking Stone release the riff-strong and heavily impactful Ashes to Ashes.
“It’s almost impossible to write a song that you’re willing to sing over and over forever, but some
songs just feel right and every time you play it you get this tingly magical feeling; like there’s some
strange power in the chords that were chosen, and they way they were played was just meant to
be.”
Classic hard rock blends passionate vocals and heavily distorted riffs, alongside unrelenting energy and a catchy, concise hook resolve – Bulletproof reignite the guitar-rock intensity of the eighties, with No More Lies.
