New Music Review - ‘Out Like a Light’ by Hot Sauce Club
Out Like a Light hits many different moments in the process. Recently released on the 11th January 2023, Hot Sauce Club showcase every ounce of their incredible abilities through the track. Artwork by Riley Smith.
Get your dunks on and get ready to run into the arms of the newest release from Hot Sauce Club, aptly titled Out Like a Light which brings attention to not only the amount of growth the band are consistently pouring into their careers as musicians, it also dives into the heaviness of someone you love doing you wrong by fading out the relationship with their actions, like a burnt out light that decides they no longer want to glow with the particular person and they proceed to do something potentially hurtful to the other party, whether out of malice or not.
In turn, Out Like a Light could also be determined to be about the mental health of someone that you care about. It takes on a couple of sides to separate situations.
(Disclaimer: this is my own take on what I feel the song is possibly about, this review is an opinion piece, I could have misinterpreted it. My apologies to Hot Sauce Club if this is the case.)
Out Like a Light bursts with this positive, heated up energy that Hot Sauce Club are well known for, even given some of life’s tough situations. With lyrical moments placed in pivotal spots in the song with pure intensity such as “suspect a thing or two of the things she may be going through. Why didn’t I say a thing? Why didn’t I say a bloody thing?”
With a small electric pang at the entrance to the song, Out Like a Light is the ultimate Kiwi surprise that takes us through different chartered waters in order to adapt to the tune itself, making it one that will make you hit the repeat: one button on the streaming service of your choice.
What personally inspires me about Hot Sauce Club as while they could produce reckless, party anthems, they don’t. They consume everything around them that they see, hear and can think of, then churn out some thrilling music that will go down well for years to come.
Slamming down a slightly gritty-indie sound with the mixing, Out Like a Light brings out a unique set of tones that Hot Sauce Club have not previously done, showing their directional change for amassing listeners from across the board, which they are successfully starting to achieve.
Hot Sauce Club are coming in with everything they’ve got and they’re aren’t pausing for anybody.
Out Like a Light is available to stream now. So, get on your board and hit the play button immediately.
