Swedish rockers Hux Flux exhilarate throughout the track “Don’t Wanna,” wasting no time with blistering guitars into the intro. Suave vocals creep inward thereafter, exuding a glam-friendly vibe reminiscent of T. Rex. The chorus’ first reveal hits right at the oen-minute turn, escalating vocal fervency and guitar involvement. “I don’t wanna,” the vocals repeat amidst clanging guitar distortion, a section that consumes each time through. The garage-rock fuzz and soaring vocal intensity converge for quality results; “Don’t Wanna” shows very well from Hux Flux.
Hux Flux describe “Don’t Wanna” as “a song about not wanting to do what is expected of you and feeling trapped by the things you want to do. Simply put, not fitting in anywhere.”
Look for a self-released EP out later this year, mixed and mastered by Jim Diamond.
