Frogtoon Music - Song Info: Black Widow

This Dance Party Tune Finds Matt Shultz Singing About A Wicked Girl. The Black Widow Is A Venomous American Spider Which Is Black With Red Markings. The Way The Female Black Widow Spiders Lure Males And Mates Them Before Eating Them Is A Frequently Used Lyrical Metaphor For Women Who Are Dishonest About Their Intentions. Matt Shultz And His Guitarist Brother Brad Disagreed About The Use Of Horns On This Song. Brad Told MusicRadar.Com "I Have A Thing About Brass So I've Wanted To Have Horns For A While. Matt Is On The Other Side Of That He Was Never A Big Horn Fan At All. We Definitely Have Different Opinions On That Subject. This Was One Of The Songs That Led To Our Big Argument. He Just Didn't Share The Vision I Had For The Horns. When We Did It And It Worked Out It Turned Out To Be A Really Pleasant Surprise."
