HRTLSS shares new single 'Daylight'
Alternative rock artist HRTLSS (pronounced Heartless) today returns with his brand-new single ‘Daylight’. Ushering an enigmatic sound that blurs the lines between Rock, Pop and Metal while blending them into an electronic powerhouse of emotional conveyance, HRTLSS, continues his rise as he looks ahead to the release of his highly anticipated debut EP, ‘Blood Moon’ (out on Friday 31st May, 2024).
Speaking about the new single, HRTLSS adds, “Lyrically, the song draws an uncanny comparison between a vampire luring their prey and a one night stand. A high toned synth signals the repetition of behaviour and unquenchable thirst, starting the loop again. Much like addiction, the lyrics “she calls to me, till I have no choice again”, accentuates the narrative of the character not truly being in control.”

The upcoming ‘Blood Moon’ EP is a conceptual piece following the journey of Vampirism through darkness, destruction, and acceptance. Pre-save the EP right HERE.
HRTLSS shares his outlook on the EP, “This body of work is a deep dive into pain, self pity and self destruction, but ultimately, the idea of losing oneself and becoming who they were meant to be. I took inspiration from the dark and grungy aesthetics of vampire movies. This project starts at the end of the story and works its way back through the EP, with each song being a different stage in the coming to terms of the state the character finds themselves in.”
In such a small amount of time, HRTLSS has truly stamped his mark on the UK alternative rock scene. Since launching in 2023 HRTLSS has received support from national radio in the form of BBC Radio 1’s Future Alternative with Nels Hylton, Introducing Rock with Alyx Holcombe (Track Of The Week), as well as editorial playlist support from multiple digital streaming platforms.
As a high school drop out and former metal guitarist, HRTLSS spent his youth touring Europe supporting some of todays biggest metal bands including the likes of Architects, Suicide Silence, Bullet for My Valentine, Enter Shikari and more.
