“I like what I hear alot – raucous guitar rock, mixed with vocal Strokes-isms, Replacements rush, Pollard British accents and more. Definitely worth a listen for the indie garage rocker inside you.”
—Waved Rumor
“The songs are nervy post-Seinfeld punk, small moments (like having to wait on some slowpoke to get ready to go out for the night) blown up into absurd drama, propelled by a taught guitar squall.”
—American Songwriter
“Vulture Whale may be the best rock band you haven’t heard. Following two excellent self-titled records, Bamboo You is another solid installment from these Alabama rockers and shifts gears, if only slightly for the band. Frontman Wes McDonald and his crew have mastered the sort of rock music you might have heard on Matador in the mid-’90s, but the band imbued it with its own southern shuffle.”
