Written in Hellfire Studio in Dublin with engineer Thomas Donoghue and producer John ‘Spud’ Murphy (Lankum, Black Midi, caroline), ‘Pull Like A Dog’ is a fiercely powerful introduction to a brand-new chapter for the band. The folk-metal supremos release the title track ‘Pull Like A Dog’ to coincide with the announcement of their new album. With its raucous energy and loud guitar riffs, the single is a prime example of The Scratch’s serious raw talent to cleverly combine folk and metal music, creating something that is distinctive and original. “It’s about tossing aside the idea of apologising for merely existing or hoping that if I keep colouring inside the lines I’ll get what I think I deserve” Daniel Lang (Lango – vocals, cajon) notes. “Mocking myself a bit but also getting the blood going so I’ll grab life by the scruff and be loud about it”.
