It only needs jangly guitars, pounding drum hits, and stimulating vocals to spark an ignition of late teenage summer. And when it hits you, it’s impossible to ignore. Leazes overflows with that unfiltered energy in their latest single, “Melissa In Action”.
Hailing from the UK, Leazes have been making waves in the alternative/indie scene since 2024. And it seems like they’ll continue to do it with Melissa In Action, delivering an anthemic, high-energy track that you can’t help but jam along.

Right from the first note, you’ll immediately know there’s never going to be a dull moment in this track. The drums are tight like it’s never going to slow down. The strings have that chiming, bright effect that feels carefree. While the vocals have that reckless, cheeky tone, blazing strongly all throughout. And the result? The feeling of a spontaneous summer drive—riding a vintage car, windows down, and no destination in mind.
Underneath its infectious, high-energy hooks is a fleeting, reckless pursuit of romance. The kind that makes you feel all giddy, kicking your feet at 3AM, while you know yourself it feels too good to last.
Imagine All Time Low and early Arctic Monkeys hanging out, exchanging stories of youthful rebellion and romance, then capturing it raw overnight at the studio? Leazes taps into that vibe, creating a timeless yet fresh sound that sticks into you like glue. Overall, Melissa In Action is coming-of-age, love affair, and recklessness bottled into one nostalgic, lived-in late summer anthem.
