Hurt & The Merciless

The Heavy

Gritty garage rock meets vintage soul swagger. Explosive horns and hip-hop breakbeats create a cinematic sound built for high-stakes moments and late-night strutting.

April 1, 2016 · Bad Son Recording Company

A high-voltage blend of soul-searching vulnerability and swaggering, brass-led defiance.

Moments Worth Listening For
the sudden explosive entry of the brass section on Since You Been Gone that feels like a physical push
the hand-clap driven rhythmic tension in What Happened to the Love? that breaks into a fuzzy guitar solo
the weary, gospel-inflected vocal harmonies that elevate the chorus of Nobody's Hero into a communal anthem
