Higgs Field is an alternative rock / metal band from South Australia and Us Forever is their latest single, released on 24/02/2023.

Combining a multitude of genres from alternative rock to emo rock to skater rock, this is a nostalgic nod back to the music of the late 90’s, that is still highly regarded by many people.

The track starts off quite gentle, with some laid back drumming and subtle but after about a minute it really kicks off with all the instruments bursting into life at the same time.

The guitars on this track have a slight distortion that gives the track a fuzzy, grungy feel and this mixed with clean guitar solos makes for a great contrast. The drumming, although subtle and laid back to start with, is energetic and pounding and really brings life to the song.

There is a great change of pace part way through the track with everything slowing down for a short amount of time before everything crashes back in again.

The vocals on this track are fantastic, a certain quirkiness about them that really makes them stand out. The clean vocals mixed with the screaming towards the end of the track is awesome and actually quite unexpected, as there are no other hints throughout the rest of the track that screaming vocals were used.

This is a great track and from a band that I will certainly be keeping an eye, and an ear, out for in the future.

Great job!
