Label: Young Poet
Released: 20th August 2021
Lead single and title-track ‘Vultures’ sets the tone on Khartoum’s new EP; a rambunctious concoction of age-old indie sensibilities mixed with a dash of punk attitude.
Although the mood may shift, the energy doesn’t falter in ‘Took It All Away’, as the song transports you to a psychedelic paradise filled with just as much temper. There’s something in the soft delivery that makes it even more cutting.
‘Benny’ and ‘Internet Lover’ follow with the same mantra, full of observations of life in the modern age – “nothing is real when you go online”.
Described by the band as “music to help you forget the clusterfuck of this year”, they couldn’t be more spot on.
