Powerwolf's new album, Wake Up The Wicked, is out today, and the band is celebrating the release with the official music video for their newest single, "We Don’t Wanna Be No Saints". As you can expect, the clip brims with Powerwolf's trademark sound, plus their knack for striking visuals complementing the story.
“Wake Up The Wicked is not only the next Powerwolf album but also a chapter of the band where we focus even more on perfecting our trademarks, especially within the individual songs. The orchestral side of us is still omnipresent, but this time the heaviness of the album is given even more space," says Matthew Greywolf.
"We've also tried out completely new elements, such as in 'We Don't Wanna Be No Saints', which features a children's choir for the first time and underlines the theme and atmosphere of the song in a completely new way. In general, there's a hell of a lot to discover on Wake Up The Wicked, so get ready for a wild listening experience!”
Order Wake Up The Wicked here.
Powerwolf will embark on their very first full North American tour with Unleash The Archers a few months after the release of Wake Up The Wicked. The tour will begin in Los Angeles, CA at The Hollywood Palladium on August 29 and will hit a slew of major North American cities, coming to an end in Laval, QC at Place Bell on September 15.
"Last year, our debut in America and Canada left us spellbound, facing sold-out venues and an incredible crowd," said Powerwolf of their upcoming tour. "The energy was unreal, and we didn’t want to miss it again. It's going to be sheer madness! This tour marks the official live debut of songs from our upcoming album – don't miss the excitement!"
