From the howling voodoo high priest Gideon Bensen to the Magdeline-esque passion of Isabella Manfredi, the voices in this band stir up a religious fervor that makes you want to drink the kool aid and wait for the spaceship. And after only one year together and the release of a self-titled EP, The Preatures are embarking on a project that flicks the finger to all expectation. Dubbed The 66 Project it sees the band in collaboration with local artists, filmmakers, and producer Tony Buchen (Tim Finn, WIM) to release free music until May 2011.
The band had started with the name; The Preachers, but to make it more original and not to make anyone confused with 60s American band named The Preachers, the band had announced on August 2nd 2012 that their new name would be The Preatures.

The Preatures Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And they wonder what you're doin' to me
They have never seen me so complete
It's like a shock to the system to see
I wanna sh–, I wanna shout it every day, yeah
Whatever you want, whatever you want
Whatever you need, I'll give it to you
Whatever you need, I'll give it to you
And the eve of the destruction seems
Just a little too real tonight, tonight
Heaven knows I find my way back home
When I got you in my loving sight
I wanna sh–, I wanna shout it every day, yeah
Whatever you want, whatever you want
Whatever you need, I'll give it to you
Whatever you want, whatever you want
Whatever you need, I'll give it to you
Ooh, uh, uh, uh i'll give it to you
