A new track by rock outfit Vampires Everywhere titled “Black Betty” is available online and can be heard above. Frontman Michael Vampire explains:

“This song is special to me because it represents a part of my life where someone I cared about betrayed my trust. I learned a lot from that situation in particular and thought it to be song worthy. The human desire for fame and recognition spark some of our most primitive actions.”

The song is taken from the Los Angeles, CA band’s recently announced full-length Ritual, due in early 2016. The record was produced by Matt Good (From First To Last, DRUGS) and mixed by David Bendeth (Bring Me The Horizon, Paramore). A teaser for the album can be viewed below.
