Glistening, new wave-nodding number is an exciting debut.

Leicester duo Lusts unveil new single ‘Temptation’

Andy and James Stone make up Lusts, a Leicester duo newly signed to 1965 Records, arriving on the scene with pummelling rock, complete with a glistening synth twist.

Their debut single, ‘Temptation’, comes mixed by MJ of Hookworms at Suburban Home Studios. DIY’s got the first play of the A-side, which arrives backed by a grainy, shimmering performance video. As for the song itself, euphoria runs through its veins, but it doesn’t trade anthem factor for the dark complexities that help make Lusts an exciting prospect.

With ‘Temptation’ out 2nd March alongside ‘Cross’, first on the agenda is a headline night at London Birthdays and a UK tour with Coves. See dates above the player.
