Toronto’s A Short Walk to Pluto Drop Debut Album ‘Out of Range’ feat. Anthemic Breakup Track “Wouldn’t Recommend”
Toronto’s rising rock band, A Short Walk to Pluto, are making waves with their debut album, Out of Range, featuring the defiant, emotionally charged focus track, “Wouldn’t Recommend.” Known for their genre-defying sound and electrifying live performances, this four-piece is staking their claim as a powerful voice in contemporary rock.
“Wouldn’t Recommend” is a high-octane breakup anthem that blends biting lyrics, soaring guitars, and a commanding vocal performance. The track serves as a cautionary tale, warning future suitors against manipulative relationships while empowering listeners to reclaim their confidence. The song’s origins lie in lead vocalist Emma Armstrong’s personal experiences, lending authenticity to its storytelling. Musically, “Wouldn’t Recommend” strikes a balance between raw emotion and polished craftsmanship. The result is a track as suited to introspection as it is to screaming along in your car.
Emma shares,
“This song was inspired by a breakup from a boy who loved to gaslight, manipulate, and backtrack. I wanted to share my story because I know so many others have been there too.“
Drummer, Jake Biggs adds,
“We leaned into the anthemic, stadium-rock vibe for the chorus, creating a sound that’s both empowering and cathartic.“
Out of Range is a bold statement of intent, combining the band’s love of classic rock, pop rock, and new wave with contemporary influences. Spanning themes of relationships, mental health, and the turbulent transition to adulthood, the album is a relatable reflection on early 20s life.
