about

Yesferatu was a unique song for us because we wrote it almost entirely as a collaboration. It’s been a turning point for us, creatively, and was a real blessing having come right after a fairly difficult time for the band. It brought us together when we needed that most. The song itself is really silly. It’s about a mythical figure that people call for when their love lives are lacking. He’s like a vampire but instead of sucking your blood he’ll satisfy those deep desires that you’re afraid to ask for. Vlado Meller, who mastered the song, and who has worked with all the top names, raved about it, saying, "This needs to be on the radio!"

lyrics

Yesferatu hears when you call out for him in your slumber
Whenever you are tempted he senses your psychic bond
Say his name three times
he will rise up right behind you
Wrap you in his cloak, a puff of smoke, and you’ll both disappear

Yesferatu knows what you need without even asking
He sees all your secrets and speaks with the beast inside
There is such a hunger
that must be satisfied
There is no desire he’ll deny so just send him an invite

Way back when in simpler times
He was living in a castle Transylvanian style
He got sick of sleeping in crypts
Now he lives with seven girlfriends down in Beverly Hills

Yesferatu goes for the kill when you show him weakness
He was built to thrill, he’ll fulfill all your deepest needs
With the scent of blood
he’s already on the hunt
The rabbit tries to run but then hot breath on her neck makes her legs limp

Way back when in simpler times
He was living in a castle Transylvanian style
He got sick of sleeping in crypts
Now he lives with seven girlfriends down in Beverly Hills

Yesferatu knows you like no one has ever before
As much as you may pray you’re afraid no one else will compare
You will always hate him
But you find yourself waiting
You leave your window open only hoping he will someday float in

Way back when in simpler times
He was living in a castle Transylvanian style
He got sick of sleeping in crypts
Now he lives with seven girlfriends down in Beverly Hills

Way back when in simpler times
He was living in a castle Transylvanian style
He got sick of sleeping in crypts
Now he lives with seven girlfriends down in Beverly Hills
