Song Review: Black Vultures - Treat Me Like An Animal
Words by Anselm Anderson
The Black Vultures are a new name in the rock world. I am always excited to receive music from a rock act with potential, and these four have plenty of potential. The band hails from South Wales and are set to release their new single "Treat Me Like An Animal" next Friday, November 4th. The track is one of three singles set for release over the next few months before releasing an EP early next year."Treat Me Like An Animal", an energetic and upbeat rock anthem, is a light-hearted look at being in a bad relationship. The song was recorded at Unit 13 in Tredegar by local producer Tom Williams and mastered by Chris Peet at North House Studio in Ebbw Vale. The Black Vultures are an amalgamation of the quartet's favourite bands: Black Sabbath and Them Crooked Vultures. The track shares some influences from those bands with a catchy chorus and high-tempo riffs.
"Treat Me Like An Animal" begins with a screeching riff that blends rock' n' roll and blues influences to shake off those cobwebs. Lead singer Huw Williams enters the fray with a confident and relaxed composure, singing softly. The vocals supplement the driving rhythm section of Williams, lead guitarist Aled Owen Jones and bassist Evin Bevis-Knowles. The song builds in motion to an infectious bridge before drummer Brandon Pritchard explodes into action. The foot-stomping chorus will keep the listener humming it long afterwards before a blues-infused solo ends the track.
The Black Vultures have been soaring high this year with some energetic performances across Wales. Overall, "Treat Me Like An Animal" is an enjoyable rock 'n' roll track to put a smile on your face.
The YouTube Video and single for "Treat Me Like An Animal" is available next Friday, November 4th.
