Metal Injection: “”The Body” brings all the heaviness and catchy choruses Bad Wolves is known for, on top of some slap bass and keyboards that adds a little funk to the mix… and it works!”

NEW YORK, NY — JULY 29, 2022 — Today, multi-platinum band Bad Wolves released a new body of work, titled Sacred Kiss via Better Noise Music. The critically acclaimed band also premiered an official music video for the title track, on which they collaborated with Aaron Pauley from Of Mice & Men. The band treated fans to more music from the Dear Monsters recording sessions today, including “The Body,” a funkier sounding song released earlier this month, an acoustic version of “Sacred Kiss,” and another brand new track called “Up In Smoke.” Aaron Pauley appears in the band’s supernatural official music video for “Sacred Kiss,” which features zombies and more. The band will be on tour for the rest of the year, hitting stages across North America and Europe. The Rockzilla Tour with Papa RoachHollywood Undead and Falling In Reverse kicked off 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, with Volbeat and Skindred.

Drummer John Boecklin shared his thoughts on the meaning of “Sacred Kiss” and teaming up with Aaron Pauley: “Stoked to have you all hear this collaboration with Aaron Pauley from Of Mice & Men. “Sacred Kiss” reflects on meeting someone that you quickly fall for and have a preconceived notion of who they are and what it could be, and then quickly realizing it is not what you expected. We made a killer video as well that plays on some of those themes. We had a lot of fun making it. Definitely, our favorite one we have made so far!”

Of Mice & Men’s Aaron Pauley also commented on the collaboration, “I think the song absolutely rips, so I was stoked when the guys reached out to me about doing a new version of it. I really enjoyed recording the song, and had even more fun shooting the video with the guys!”

On their new EP, John said, “With “Sacred Kiss” going to radio this summer, we decided to release an EP containing some of the remaining songs from the Dear Monsters sessions! “Up In Smoke” and “The Body” will keep your appetites for riffs settled, while the piano version of Sacred Kiss rounds off the EP just right. Basically, it’s a little something to hold the Wolfpack over till we get another album out!”

The band will be performing their new music this summer in cities such as El Paso, TX, Milwaukee, WI, Copenhagen, Madrid, and Vienna. Bad Wolves will be in North America until August 31 and in Europe from October 15 to December 9. Fans can find upcoming shows and ticket information HERE.

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.”
