FloodHounds have always had a knack for delivering riff-driven, high-energy indie rock, but One Horse Race might just be their most relentless track yet. Built on muscular, direct guitar work that pushes you back and pins you to the wall, the song bursts out of the gates with a raw, unfiltered intensity. Yet, amidst all the stomp and fuzz, there’s an undeniable sweetness—the melody worms its way in, teasing in the verse before the chorus is gloriously let off the leash.
The Sheffield trio’s signature blend of punk-infused, darkly melodic rock shines through, proving why they’ve become festival regulars and shared stages with the likes of Kid Kapichi and The Blinders. One Horse Race feels like a track made for the live circuit—urgent, immediate, and impossible to shake once it’s lodged in your head. With a London headline show on the horizon and a growing reputation that stretches from UK venues to Parisian clubs, FloodHounds continue their upward charge, and this single is another thrilling step forward.
