Hamilton, Ontario’s Superstar Crush explode onto the scene with Way Too Much, their glitter-soaked debut album out now alongside the focus track “Do What U Wanna.” Maximalist and emotionally charged, the record captures the band’s coming-of-age in real time – a diary of oversharing, overthinking, and loud catharsis. With crunchy guitars, confetti synths, bratty vocals and deeply relatable lyrics, it’s the kind of album made to be screamed at the top of your lungs with your best friends.

Across 12 tracks, the band dives headfirst into the chaos of growing up and falling apart, channeling anxiety, anger, heartbreak, and joy into songs that are tender and loud in all the right ways. From overthinking and oversharing to crushing too hard and feeling everything all at once, Way Too Much captures the kind of feelings that don’t fit in your chest let alone a group chat.

Anchoring the release is “Do What U Wanna,” a swaggering pop-rock track about jealousy, delusion, and trying to claw back your confidence in the face of rejection. “It was my crippling jealousy,” says guitarist Sam Hansell. “Our drummer Truaxe wrote our fan-favourite ‘Tru Blu’ and I was SO jealous of the success. I rushed home and cranked this little piggy out.”

From its groove-heavy bassline to its triumphant final chorus, “Do What U Wanna” distills the band’s ethos – fun, heartfelt, a little unhinged – into two-and-a-half minutes of pop-punk perfection. “It’s a hype-up jam,” says vocalist Marzieh Darling. “It just works. Girls started messaging me to say it was their go-to shower song, which is when I knew we had something.”

As for the final version? “There’s a tiger roar in there,” laughs synth player Chloe Butler-Stubbs. “Truaxe snuck it in while recording and we didn’t catch it until mixing – we kept it right to the end.”
