The Hyena Kill release new song ‘Pound of Flesh’
THE HYENA KILL have released a brand new song!
The song, titled Pound of Flesh, is taken from the band’s upcoming EP Spun, which is scheduled for release in April. Speaking about the track, guitarist and vocalist Steven Dobb says, “It’s basically one massive mood swing. The first half of the track is quite upbeat and riffy and ends with a screaming your lungs out meltdown. It has some of my favorite lyrics I’ve ever written dealing with sex, desire, manipulation and self-loathing. The recording process for this track was really smooth. Lorna absolutely nailed her drum part. The track was bouncing before we even got round to tracking guitars. Pound Of Flesh is the one track on the EP that sounds more like our previous material but with a more focused sound. The ending is the heaviest thing we have ever recorded and a lot of fun to play live. We nearly didn’t record it as it felt too different from the other tracks, by the time it was finished it slotted in perfectly. Really glad we didn’t bin it off!”
