Funhaus Share Debut Single ‘Scene Vulture’

London based band Funhaus release their debut single ‘Scene Vulture’. The wait is over, kids. The wait is finally over. 

Funhaus have been slowly rip-roaring their way around the London scene for the best part of three years now, with them they bring an energy of we don't really give that much of a fuck although we know how good we look and how good we sound therefore pay attention to us, cunts. 

Should you pay attention? Yes. Do they look good? Oh God yeah. Do they sound good? Absolutely yes. Their debut single ‘Scene Vulture’ is a solid representation of what you should expect when you eventually catch them live. It's a charming, organized mess with an irresistible guitar hook. It's got a rowdy, nasty, fuck you, cunt attitude about it that could turn the lovely likes of Tom Hanks into a really horrible bastard for three minutes and thirty four seconds given he had the chance to have a listen. The rhythm section is thick and chewy just like your mamma used to make it. And its all accompanied by a silky, cool and lackluster vocal performance that gives the impression that it was a ‘one take and that's enough’ take. It's not exactly what you should expect from a live Funhaus show, but it's not at all far from it. 

The band have had a couple of lineup changes since their original formation. With said lineup changes, older songs (i.e, Scene Vulture) have been given a zesty new flavor. With much more aggressive, coherent drumming, as well as a convenient and well fitting rhythm guitar style that contrasts nicely with the sharp and snaky lead guitar; Funhaus seem to have found a well fitted balance between the original-intent of the songs conception and the let's see what happens when we play it together aspects. 

In short, it slaps. Doesn't belt. But it slaps. See them live and then you'll know what I mean, purely because live it absolutely belts, at least judging from my own experience anyway. 

Scene Vulture is out now. Give it a spin.
