British rock outfit Khartoum will release their debut EP Vultures on August 20th via Young Poet Records. Ahead of it’s release they have made a name for themselves with their fantastic self-titled single “Vultures.”
The track has a fun energetic blend of 90s rock and pop that has a bit of a Wolf Alice swagger to it, with some catchy guitar licks, and a dominant vocal performance that delivers its clever pop hook in an undeniably catchy fashion. You immediately get a sense that these guys are going to be big.
Speaking about “Vultures” the band’s Oscar Dunbar states:
Written during the first Covid-19 Lockdown, Vultures contains all the angst and strangeness of that time. It is too easy to be whisked away by the “Vultures” in your lives, but this song urges listeners to break out and dance away those demons.
The song is an anthem for all those who have felt themselves negatively labelled. What levels us is our humanity and we felt being able to sit in a circle and discuss our fears and hopes was as good a way as any to present this. The video is about social equality succeeding despite discrimination diminishing hope, achievement & self-esteem.
