Connecticut heavy music duo Turkey Vulture have released their new single »Untitled«. The song is from their forthcoming release On The List which is set to land on October 25th, 2024.

The band comments on »Untitled«, “I (Jessie) wrote the music to this song for our old band, Jimmy Junk Bird and The Stiffs. The original lyrics, by Christopher Baldwin, were about the restorative and unifying power of music. We included his bridge lyrics, “Play the pain away / Heal my soul,” because they embody how music brought us together and has been a driving force in our lives. Also, Descendents fans, there are a couple lyrical Easter eggs in there!”

The six-track EP features five gritty anthems that reflect what listeners have come to expect from Turkey Vulture: as one reviewer put it, “a stoner metal heart and a punk attitude” marked by aggressive vocals, melodic basslines, and freight-train drums. The final track, »Jill The Ripper«, takes a different turn. This deadly folk song, featuring guitar, banjo, and accordion by guest musician Steve Rodgers (Mighty Purple), is a departure from Turkey Vulture’s traditional sound – but the grimly humorous lyrics certainly align with »On The List«’s heavier tracks.
