Description
POWERWOLF - a band that fills the hearts of every heavy metal fan with joy - will release their highly-
anticipated new studio album, Wake Up The Wicked, on July 26, 2024 via Napalm Records! With
several #1 chart entries and multiple gold and platinum records, POWERWOLF is undoubtedly one of
the most successful current heavy metal bands worldwide. Headline and premium slots at premier
rock and metal festivals like Wacken, Hellfest or Graspop, as well as massive sold-out arena shows have
further solidified the Wolfpack's standing at the very top of the scene. POWERWOLF's high quality
releases are steadily praised by critics and fans alike, building upon the successful reach of their songs
and impressive official music videos, which have been streamed tens of millions of times across
platforms to date.
Wake Up The Wicked - the highly anticipated successor to the extremely successful previous studio
album, Call Of The Wild (2021) - will be released just in time for the award-winning band's first ever
full North American tour, starting in August 2024, followed by their biggest European headline tour to
date, the Wolfsn?chte 2024. Wake Up The Wicked is once again produced by the outstanding Joost
van den Broek at Sandlane Recording Facilities and marks a new benchmark and undisputed career
highlight for the band. The new album is hard, surprising and full of variety. While staying true to their
established, loved sound, POWERWOLF go one step further and showcase a different facet of their
deft musical and technical skills. This is evident, for example, on the outstanding single "1589", which
is based on a true story from the 16 th century.
20 years after their formation in 2004, POWERWOLF are expanding their repertoire with the highest
quality and adding many future live hits to their extraordinary discography. Wake Up The Wicked is
yet another statement cementing the status of the band as a leading force in the world of heavy metal!
