Highly Suspect releases "Little One"
Highly Suspect are keeping the momentum rolling from the smash success of their 2015 sophomore effort, Mister Asylum, which netted the group two GRAMMY nominations. They’re going back-to-back with another new record this year, They Boy Who Died Wolf, and have just released the new track “Little One.”
The song opens with gentle acoustic strumming and a lonely, despondent vocal delivery that jumps in intensity when the distortion comes crashing in. There’s a peculiar malaise about this song, largely in part due to the small effects buried underneath the fuzz-drenched guitars. Whether its the twinkling melody that dots moments along the chorus or the high-pitched droning that creeps in and out of the verses, it’s a delicate touch that adds incredible depth to “Little One.”
Frontman Johnny Stevens commented about the album on the whole, stating, “I think there’s a little more step to this album. There’s happier tones. There’s some dark stuff too but there are simply more uplifting moments on this album. I think we finally realized we are supposed to be here making music, that people like what we do. We had more trust in ourselves and each other and just let the music come out.” (Loudwire)
