Bassist/vocalist Sam Bean (The Antichrist Imperium, The Berzerker) comments: "This shit again. Seriously. I should be pouring concrete into a lower chamber underneath my shed and stockpiling waterproof boxes of grains, but here I am promoting one of our fucking brutal albums. The day one of us has a heart attack or gets hit by a truck, everything will go back to normal, I guarantee. But in the meantime, buy our shit. We are better than you."
Drummer Dave Haley (Psycroptic, Abramelin, Ruins, King, Blood Duster) and guitarist Matt Wilcock (The Antichrist Imperium, The Berzerker, Abramelin) add: "This album sounds like the last album, but better."
WEREWOLVES' debutThe Dead Are Screamingwas recorded in 2019 and followed by Australia going from medium to well-done in apocalyptic bushfires. The second releaseWhat A Time to Be Alivewas recorded in 2020 and closely preceded a global pandemic then mass hysteria.WEREWOLVESattempted some caution and tact by only releasing a limited vinyl EP,DeathMetal,in February 2022 and happened to put it out for sale the same day war came to Europe.
From The Cave to The Gravekeeps up the searing pace of the first twoWEREWOLVESalbums, with a mix of black and death metal and unprecedented aggression that is coalescing into a style of its own. OpenerSelf-Help Book Burningkicks the door in Hate Eternal-style before deforming into a blackened ending. It's followed by stadium crowd-pleaserWe Are Better Than You, blasterAll the Better to Eat You With, and social credit score-destroyerCrushing Heaven's Mandate.Harvest of the Skullsis an ode to the horror of genocide and the rest of the album blasts through to closing threatWatch Your Mouth, leaving you to enjoy your ringing ears and mild trauma.
The mixing is by Joe Haley (Psycroptic) and the artwork is by Mitchell Nolte. Slayer never changed their shit up, neither willWEREWOLVES. "Change" can be mistaken for "progression", whichWEREWOLVESshrinks in horror from.
