Heavy metal outfit Powerwolf have shared the second single from their upcoming full-length ‘Call Of The Wild’. The new single follows the albums lead single ‘Beast of GĂ©vaudan’, which not only stirred up the international scene but cemented their incomparable success.
The second single from the upcoming album is entitled ‘Dancing With The Dead’, and underlines Powerwolf’s indispensable skill for pure, bloody heavy metal and hooks that will stay in your head forever. The hit-filled four-minute track just screams for big stages and will not only captivate loyal followers but also new fans immediately.
“With Call Of The Wild, we are opening a new, exciting chapter in the history of Powerwolf.” Matthew Greywolf comments. “The album sounds unmistakably like Powerwolf and is so much more at the same time: Besides new territory like the Celtic instrumentation in ‘Blood for Blood (Faoladh)’ or the ballad-like ‘Alive or Undead’ we have raised all our trademarks to a new level. Until now, we never sounded so powerful and wild – in the truest sense of the word. We can’t wait to finally share this beast of an album with you all!”
The new track also comes alongside a new cinematic short film for the release, and stages a wild dance with the dead. Featuring Attila’s gripping vocals and irresistible riffs, the accompanying cinematic music video takes the viewer back to the past and once again showcases Powerwolf’s visual strength. Check it out below.
Once again created in cooperation with the honourable producer duo of Jens Bogren and Joost van den Broek, the masterpiece will open a new chapter in the band’s history on 16th July 2021. The eighth studio album will serve both old and newly recruited Powerwolf devotees with well-known classic trademarks, and equally surprise and delight them at every stage of this wild 11-track ride.
