The song opens with driving guitars and tight, kinetic drums, setting a pace that never lets up. The vocals carry a raw edge while still delivering a strong melodic line, giving the track both emotional pull and a relentless push forward. “Last Summer” feels nostalgic without being soft — it’s sharp, loud, and completely alive.
What makes the track shine is how naturally Steelboy blend heartfelt delivery with classic punk energy. There’s melody, there’s weight, and there’s that unmistakable Richmond spark. The production keeps things crisp without losing the DIY bite, letting every hook hit clean and every rhythm punch through.
“Last Summer” is Steelboy proving they’re not just another band in the scene — they’re one of the names to watch. This single hits hard, hits honest, and sticks with you long after it’s over.
