With plenty of stylistic and introspective substance to put behind their indie rock swagger, Those Heavy Souls hit the ground (trail)blazing single, How High’s Too High. Orbits above indie landfill, this indie dance rock hit, which takes the infectious rhythms of Kasabian and Led Zeppelin and gives them a gritty 90s Britpop edge, won’t know when it’s time to stop reverberating around your mind after the outro.
With red-hot wailing guitars searing across the frenetic pace of the single which is punctuated by strobing synths, electronic breakbeats and bass drums big enough to kick you in the chest, the single asserts itself as a definitive indie anthem.
If you’ve ever come close to slipping into hedonistic oblivion to escape the fray of a torn material reality, How High’s Too High will hit hard enough to bruise. After news of the Oasis reunion has swept up the UK in a fever of indie nostalgia, How High’s Too High is the perfect track to remind indie fans that there are plenty of contemporary acts worthy of the Gallaghers’ iconic status.
How High’s Too High? dropped on August 23rd; stream the single on all major platforms, including Spotify.
