WEREWOLVES To Release New Album July 19 2024 Terry Bunch, May 11, 2024 WEREWOLVES formed in 2019 with the express purpose of releasing ten albums in ten years. 2024 sees them hit the halfway mark with Die For Us, yet another barrage of completely moronic death-metal due out 19th July. “We are goal-driven achievers known for our savvy business acumen”, said broke-ass bassist-vocalist Sam Bean (The Antichrist Imperium, The Berzerker, who has never been successful at anything in his life, ever). “It seems obvious at this point, now that we have amassed an international following and rabid demand for our live shows, that we should release an album imploring everyone to kill themselves and each other. Reverse psychology, Marketing 101. Getting your fanbase to cull themselves down to a pile of goo and corpses means more sales. Duh.” “Oh, the music? Same shit…blastbeats and incoherent ranting, sick riffs, that sort of thing. We’ll slip in some big choruses, brilliant samples, a few hints of black metal, one slow track that actually resembles music, and an amazing guest appearance. But at the end of the day, it’s still going to sound like a school bus getting fed into a metal shredder.” Drummer Dave Haley (Psycroptic, Abramelin, Ruins, King, Blood Duster) and Guitarist Matt Wilcock (The Antichrist Imperium, The Berzerker, Abramelin) who play in real bands, feel that they shouldn’t let the bass player try and describe music. WEREWOLVES continued their triumphant run of shows that extended no further than their own country and glommed onto bands far more popular than theirs throughout 2023. After beginning the year supporting MAYHEM and ULCERATE nationally, WEREWOLVES went on to support EXHUMED at their Melbourne show, then closed the year out by roaming the country with ARCHSPIRE and INGESTED. “If that doesn’t stop people calling us a technical metal band I don’t know what will”, said Matt. “Here were these bright young talented things, well-seasoned, with the best equipment and a bright future ahead of them. But first people had to put up with these drunken old cunts with their opening half-hour of horseshit, staggering blindly around stage looking for the single input they had to plug into, and often failing to do that.” He added “CAVEMAN DEATH METAL”. Die For Us ticks every box for modern death metal, with excruciatingly violent blasting straight out the gates and very little let-up until the bitter end. The title track is an anthemic call to self-annihilation, ‘Beaten Back To Life’ castigates everyone with the temerity to have started listening to metal after 1992. ‘Fuck You Got Mine’ is a hymn to the joys of being a slumlord. ‘My Hate is Strong’ is pure visceral evil and features vocal contributions by Australian national treasure ROK from SADISTIK EXEKUTION. ‘Spittle-Flecked Rant’ flirts with d-beats and hardcore while imploring the world to be even worse, and ‘Under A Urinal Moon’ is a wave of blackened darkness piss. Mixing and Mastering was done by none other than Joe Haley (PSYCROPTIC), who we’ll use until either he dies, we quit, or Erik Rutan becomes an affordable option. The artwork was done by Mitchell Nolte, not an AI because we’re not fuckwits, and is guaranteed to horrify as many people as all the previous albums. He basically took the album title and ran with it, focusing his artistic genius on cramming as much blood and gore onto an album cover as humanly possible. Die For Us is set for release 19th July 2024, available worldwide streaming on everything.
