Many many things to announce but most importantly and also most insanely we will be releasing our debut album (initially sarcastically but eventually seriously) named ‘Backhand Deals’ to be released in February next year it features our latest single ‘You’ which is also available to stream everywhere now, along with an amazing new video directed by the incredible Will Clark.
The Welsh Wizards Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard have today announced their debut LP “Backhand Deals” and release new single ‘You’ with a video to accompany it. They will also follow their triumphant Cardiff Castle gig, support slots with The Blinders.
Speaking about the album, main man Tom Rees says “Backhand Deals” is a practise in subverting the ideology of rock music as something that needs to be ‘brought back from the dead’. Rock should be about enjoying yourself honestly, whether that’s washing the dishes, sweeping the yard, or complaining about whoever got elected. Rock is a sweeping power, and is attributed to anyone who performs art honestly, from Lizzo feeling good as hell to AC/DC riding down a highway to hell. The honesty is the same, and the honesty prevails”.
Preorder is available now so give me your money! Of course in line with indie-band-trying-to-chart-in-an-impossible-fashion there are loads of bundles available that can give u tix to a show, a hot t shirt designed by Liam Barrett or even a cassette???
The video is ode to Orange Juice, but we’re not talking the 80’s Edwin Collins fronted Scottish band, we’re talking the liquid squeezed from the fruit.
The triple buzzards are wonderfully unashamed glam rock’n’roll aficionados, three part harmonies, crunchy SG guitar, dance to you drop drums and understated bass and Backhand Deals promises to be a glorious mix of social consciousness and huge riffs.
Without getting overly emotional online (a sentiment I perceive the be the end of society as we know it), releasing a debut album is a huge deal for any musician, and I don’t think we could be luckier releasing it right now, on the label we’re with, and with the team we have looking after us, to none other but you. Love u all xxx
The album will be out on 25th February 2022 on Communion Records.
