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 July 19.
To prepare you for this fifth assault on the senses, which sounds “like a school bus getting fed into a metal shredder”, the band have unleashed a video for the track Beaten Back To Life.
Bassist/vocalist Sam Bean describes the track: “Well, reaching the halfway point of our ten album goal was cause for us to pause and indulge in some introspection. I mean, we’ve been making some really childish, obnoxious, Jurassic death metal for five years now. If ever we were going to pivot to a new direction more befitting our skills and maturity, it would be now.”
He continues: “Of course we didn’t. This album is even worse than before, and our first video is about how anyone who got into metal after 1992 is weak and worthless. It’s all about vinyl, cassette tapes, and wanton violence at shows, not this stupid warm-fuzzy ‘support our scene’ non-sense.”
Speaking about the Die For Us album, Sam says: “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.”
