TURKEY VULTURE are now streaming their new EP Boxer via Ghost Cult Magazine. The EP is set to be released this Friday.
The band commented "Boxer is two tracks and just under five minutes, so I don't know if that makes it a single or an EP. But anyhow, thank you Ghost Cult Mag for giving the internet its first listen! These songs, "Boxer" and "Jolene" (a cover of the famous Dolly Parton number) represent the most punk aspects of our set list. Turkey Vulture is fueled by the mythology of the American Dream, an ambition that is designed to be just out of reach for so many of us. If you just worked harder, or had the right outfit, or cut out gluten or got your degree, ALL THIS could be yours....
But this is a dream that fuels consumerism and lines the pockets of the 1%, not a dream that's supposed to come true. As the pigs told their farmyard brethren in George Orwell's Animal Farm, "Day and night we are watching over your welfare"
