Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard by Charlie Harris
Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard have also announced UK and European tour dates.
Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard will release their new album Skinwalker on April 12th.
First single National Rust was, ‘my attempt at consolidating my 2020 obsession with Sly and the Family Stone with my 2021 obsession with David Bowie’s album Low’, according to Tom Rees:
“It was the first song that really paved the way for the new album, it broke a lot of the sonic boundaries that I was writing within when starting the second album, “I AM NOT AFRAID OF PLAYING FUNKY GUITAR!’, I exclaimed, mu-tron in hand.”
Lyrically, it made a statement that informed my songwriting moving forward as well, being a flagrant rejection of my previous political song writing, and an admission of alienation amongst a plethora of information. National Rust acts as a bridge between my younger, more political perspective, and my more recent, more apathetic one.
The band undertook writing and recording sessions at Rees’ own Rat Trap studios as they worked on what is set to be the follow-up to their 2022 debut album Backhand Deals.
