The Wolves Remain join SMF2013!!!


There's a couple of new bands I'm really looking forward to seeing this year and this one of them, The Wolves Remain are currently promoting their newest EP and the track below " Unworthy" .

TWR are already on the way to big things and SMF could be chance to catch the lads on a smaller stage, expect big rhythmic chunks and dark atmospheres here.
Welcome to the show guys \m/



HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN TOGETHER, AND HOW DID YOU START?
We’ve actually not been a full band for that long at all, Jack and our former guitarist Jake decided that they wanted to start a metal band so they started jamming after school and started writing their own songs! They then asked Chris to do vocals, they got in contact with me through a friend and asked me to play bass! Our new line up is still yet to be announced!

WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM THE REST?Our riffs! WHO ARE YOUR MAIN INFLUENCES MUSICALLY?
I’d say the bands that we all listen to and ook up to, bands like Of Mice & Men, Memphis May Fire, Parkway Drive etc. They’re such inspirational people, the way they are with fans, their stage presence and the way they are as people in general is amazing! WHAT ARE YOUR SONGS MOSTLY ABOUT?Every song we write tends to have a different meaning, of course our new single Unworthy is about not feeling good enough. Our lyrics mean something to every one of us personally, it’s the reason we’re so passionate about the music!

WHATS YOUR FAVOURITE SONG THAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN?
Definitely our most recent single Unworthy!

IF YOU COULD DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN ONE WORD, WHAT WOULD IT BE?Heavy. WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BEST MOMENT / GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT AS A BAND SO FAR?Supporting Odessa at Satans Hollow was definitely a big one for us, it was such an awesome opportunity for us to play with the bands we got to! Also seeing people singing along to our songs on barrier is a great achievement in my opinion, it make you realize that people are just as passionate about the music as you are!

WHATS NEXT FOR YOU GUYS?
We’re currently in practice with our potential new line up after losing a few members recently, we’re writing a brand new EP for you guys to listen to and we’re going to be gigging a lot around the north west! Expect more bounce, heavier breakdowns and some very catchy chorus’!

HOW DO YOU RATE YOUR LOCAL SCENE AT THE MOMENT?
It’s pretty good at the moment, there’s definitely more people turning up at shows wanting to have a good time!

WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO CHANGE/ IMPROVE IT?
More venues are needed! Apart from that just more local shows to give bands a chance to get their name out there!

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON EVENTS LIKE THESE- WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MORE?
We’d love to see and be part of more events like this! It’s an amazing opportunity for local talent to show themselves off! Its also awesome being able to support each other, even if it is watching each others set, it’s showing your support in some way!

DO YOU THINK THAT THERE IS A LACK OF ORIGINALITY OR A WILLINGNESS TO PUSH BOUNDERYS IN METAL AS A GENRE?
Bands are definitely wary to push the boundaries of their genre in fear that people will consider it too different and therefore dislike it, but at the end of the day if you’re comfortable with the sound of your band then that’s all that matters!

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST WORRY YOU GUYS FACE AS A BAND?
Not being able to pursue our dreams.

IF YOU COULD SUPPORT ANY BAND, WHO WOULD IT BE?
For me it would have to be Of Mice & Men, their shows are absolutely mental, it’d be an honour!

WHO WOULD WIN- GANDALF OR DARTH VADER?
Definitely Gandalf.

FINALLY- WHY SHOULD PEOPLE COME AND SEE YOU PLAY?
We go fucking hard on stage, we’re heavy and we love having a good time, you won’t be disappointed if you come and see us
