PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
Bad Wolves, the critically acclaimed and multi-platinum band, released their new single “The Body” today via Better Noise Music, along with a lyric video for the song. The track haunts the listener, talking about how far one must go to commit an unthinkable crime. It is the first new offering from the band’s upcoming EP, set for release this summer. They have been working on new music as they gear up to head out on the Rockzilla Tour with Papa Roach, Hollywood Undead and Falling In Reverse again, but this time with their new guitarist Max Karon. The second leg kicks off in East Providence, RI on July 27 and ends in Nashville, TN on August 31. They will also be touring Europe this fall, performing in Germany, Finland, and France, to name a few.

Listen and watch “The Body” :
“When we were writing this song we had a goal of trying new things,” said drummer John Boecklin. “The slap bass and clavichord instantly was new territory for Bad Wolves. It feels good to know this track sounds like nothing we have ever done before. It’s a fun track that feels like a mix of Faith no more with a dash of Daft Punk. Enjoy!”
This May the band announced their new guitar player, stating, “It’s with great excitement that we announce our new permanent guitar player is Max Karon. The funny thing is that Max isn’t new to us, he started the band with founder John Boecklin in 2014 and was a major writer/player on all three Bad Wolves albums. Being a key ingredient to the Bad Wolves sound, this was a no-brainer decision. There is no other person on this earth that would be a better fit for Bad Wolves than Max.” The news caught the attention of Blabbermouth, BraveWords, Loudwire and others.
“Words can hardly express how thrilled and grateful I am for this opportunity, and how right it feels to be here,” shared Max. “Having been part of Bad Wolves since the very beginning, I’m so proud to be joining in full. It’s amazing how far this band has come, and I’m so excited and driven to see how far we can go. I’m looking forward to everything about this new chapter of my life. I’ll see you out there!”
This past May, Bad Wolves confirmed that they would be rejoining Papa Roach, Falling In Reverse, and Hollywood Undead on their North American tour this summer. Rock out with Bad Wolves in cities such as El Paso, TX and Milwaukee, WI. The band will also be in Europe this fall, touring with Volbea, Napalm Death, and Skindred from October 15 to December 9, hitting cities such as Copenhagen, Madrid, and Vienna.

Fans should be on the lookout for more information about new music this summer by keeping up with Bad Wolves on their Website, Instagram, Twitter and other social platforms.
“If Tomorrow Never Comes (featuring Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills),” which will appear on the soundtrack for THE RETALIATORS, a Better Noise Films production, out this fall, rose to the Top Five at rock radio this spring. The band previously premiered a new video for “If Tomorrow Never Comes,” the second single off of their acclaimed third album DEAR MONSTERS, and released their new EP If Tomorrow Never Comes in March.
The EP’s title track “If Tomorrow Never Comes” quickly became a fan favourite track, and now both the original and remix collectively boast over 11 MILLION streams to date. The official music video includes footage from the film, offering a different look at what fans were shown in the original “If Tomorrow Never Comes” visual, in addition to performance footage of Spencer Charnas.

ABOUT BAD WOLVES
Expectations never mattered to Bad Wolves. Instead, the Los Angeles band fused unpredictable metallic intensity and impressive instrumental proficiency to arena-ready hooks, transforming from underdogs into elite platinum-certified hard rock contenders without compromise or apology. Since 2017, the core group—John Boecklin [drums], Doc Coyle [lead guitar, backing vocals], Chris Cain [rhythm guitar], and Kyle Konkiel [bass, backing vocals]—have consistently subverted expectations and accomplished the seemingly impossible. In 2018, the band earned a platinum plaque, topped iTunes, and ruled Active Rock at #1 for three weeks straight. This momentum also propelled their debut album, Disobey, to a Top 25 debut on the Billboard Top 200. In between performing to sold-out audiences on multiple continents with heavyweights such as Five Finger Death Punch and Megadeth, 2019’s N.A.T.I.O.N. yielded their fifth straight #1 at Active Rock, “Sober,” and brought their total stream tally past the half-billion mark—unprecedented for a modern rock band. Not to mention, LoudWire hailed it among the “50 Best Rock Albums of 2019” as Billboard and Consequence of Sound chronicled their rise. In the midst of 2021, Bad Wolves welcomed Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz—previously of The Acacia Strain—as lead vocalist, ushering in a new chapter with their third full-length offering, Dear Monsters, [Better Noise Music], led by the single “Lifeline.”
