Them Crooked Vultures are a hard rock supergroup that formed in Los Angeles, California in 2009.

The band’s self-titled debut album was released on November 16, 2009 in the UK and November 17, 2009 in the US. It was also available to stream on the internet on November 9, 2009 via the band’s YouTube page, prior to its release, after which the album was removed.
