The Hiatus realize that wolves are the new vampires in their video “Walking like a Man.” Little Red Riding Hood is here, a man using make up effects to transform, a hunter and an actual wolf.  So the visuals are great. The song is dreamy before turning nightmarish. I’ve said this before, the Hiatus are really going for grandiose.

The Hiatus really polarized everyone with “the Ivy.” So  “Walking like a Man” takes a more melodic approach and doesn’t get all noisy until the end of the track.

Overall it’s a good song, but again this is the second track that just doesn’t straight out rock. It’s going for deeper and artsy fartsy. I can dig it, but I could really use some straight up rocking.

Let’s hope the Hiatus get back on track soon. In the meantime check out the Hiatus’ new album Anomaly at yesasia.com. It’s out today 6-30-2010.
