    Central Pennsylvania’s own musical hurricane, Ninetail return with their first album since 2009. The Vultures are Circling finds the band in top form, dealing out plenty of the aggressive metal they have always been known for, but here adding new elements to the mix. There is an intricacy and attention to detail often forgotten in heavy music - with enough twists and changes in the songs to satisfy the most discerning ear. Each change of tempo or stylistic shift is in service to the song, each song crafted as part of the whole. In an age of mp3 singles, The Vultures are Circling is an ALBUM from start to finish.

    Thematically, The Vultures are Circling deals with the Revolutionary War from Paul Revere’s nighttime ride through the horrors of war that came after. Heavy as iron ore, refined as steel - rapid fire drums and tremelo picking alternate with moments inspired by classical music and even lute-guitar interludes. Ninetail has managed to deliver an uncompromising heavy metal album, interesting and well written enough to expand their listening audience well beyond that core. The Vultures are Circling is for metal fans AND music fans alike.

lyrics

All hail to the prodigal sons
They've been designed to seize you in the web that's been spun
Landgraves of eradication, now fall in line
soon you'll know just what you've become

We see you indeed
With those tricks up your sleeve
Virtuous hologram is not what we perceive

All rise for the gall to deny

We'll never know what is the truth or what is a lie
Disciples stare into the fiery sky with an acceptance of the facts
There is no chance to survive

Not going down 'til the empire's crown is destroyed
We'll be a detriment to the resistance deployed
I see you smiling
The day will come when you must choose from us or them

Gone is that chance now you stare down the lance of the paragon sword

Benign to the world
Don't turn your back now
The sheep has become the wolf

All hail to the prodigal sons
All rise for the gall to deny

We see you indeed
With those tricks up your sleeve
Virtuous hologram is not what we perceive
Stymied from the truth
