Indie rock act hvndfvst are the latest signing for Blacktop Records (Open Hand, Wheatus), and the outfit are wasting little time with the release of their new single “Looming.”

Stemming from hvndfvst’s forthcoming EP Big Sweeties, “Looming” offers a dreary look at one’s past mistakes (“I never wanted this/Looming in my selfish wit”). For the accompanying music video, which finds the singer browsing through an abandoned home, director Filmpuhr was behind the camera.

hvndfvst said this about the new tune:

"Looming is about your roots. The Big Sweeties EP has all been a very sobering experience for me because the greater part of the last decade has been me living in denial of having a child and drowning myself with alcoholism to escape that."

Pre-orders for Big Sweeties, which arrives on March 18, can be made here. The six-song release, which features drums from Logan Trearty, was produced by Low Gain Productions at After Hours Studio in Toronto.
