Every once in a while, a debut single comes along that doesn’t just make noise — it demands to be heard. Berkshire-based rock duo Black Prussia crash onto the scene with “Animal,” a ferocious first offering that’s as raw and unrelenting as its title suggests. From the very first riff, the track explodes with a pulse of adrenaline — roaring backbeats, blistering guitar lines, and a swagger that feels both classic and refreshing.
Frontman Tanaka Mapepa and lead guitarist Winston Alla make it clear they’re not here to play it safe. “Animal” rips through your speakers with an unapologetic rock ’n’ roll spirit — the kind of track that could shake the walls of a dingy London venue or soundtrack a mosh pit under festival lights. It’s loud, melodic, and full of purpose. The band’s sound leans into alternative guitar-driven music but carries that old-school punk grit and confidence that modern rock has been missing for a while.
Having originally formed in 2017 and reuniting in 2023, Black Prussia sounds like a band that’s spent its time sharpening its claws. “Animal” is proof of that — a track brimming with energy, intensity, and attitude. It’s the perfect way to mark their official arrival and a bold statement that there’s a new force in the UK rock scene ready to tear things up.
‘Animal’ is a high-voltage debut
