SHARPTONE RECORDS MEDIA ALERT: Alpha Wolf Release New Video

NEW ALBUM HALF LIVING THINGS OUT NOW — LISTEN

U.S. TOUR WITH EMMURE, UNITY TX, + CHAMBER STARTS THIS WEEKEND

The wait is over — the staggering new era for Aussie metalcore behemoths Alpha Wolf has arrived with the release of the band's third studio album Half Living Things, officially out via Greyscale Records and SharpTone Records.

A cornucopia of heaving brutality brewed into sharply-honed moments of melodic brilliance, Half Living Things is a snapshot of everything fans know and love about Alpha Wolf on steroids. Whether unleashing gargantuan party-starters ("Bring Back The Noise"), neck-snapping breakdowns ("Double-Edge Demise"), raw, stomping hooks ("Whenever You're Ready") or an internet-breaking feature ("Sucks 2 Suck Feat. Ice-T"), Alpha Wolf harness and heighten their trademark intensity on album three, crafting the self-produced Half Living Things entirely on their own terms.

Also leveling up Alpha Wolf presence, the group have unveiled a brand new video for "Haunter"; a straight-up heavy masterpiece that balances its hooky chorus with full blown menace, both lyrically and instrumentally.

Watch the music video for Haunter Below.

And, as of 2024, the band now sit armed with the entirety of Half Living Things out in the world; a release guaranteed to catapult the Alpha Wolf legacy to even more dizzying heights.

Launching their own curated festival CVLTFEST in 2022, Alpha Wolf also continue to powerfully fly the flag for their own incredible wares as well as the local heavy music scene and exciting international acts, with CVLTFEST returning earlier this year for its second edition to critical acclaim, headlined by Alpha Wolf themselves alongside friends Emmure, Crossfaith, Ocean Grove and many more.

Ticking off their biggest North American run to date with Motionless in White and tearing up multiple stages as part of the inaugural Knotfest Australia last year, Alpha Wolf kicked off 2024 touring nationally alongside The Amity Affliction, and are now set to embark next week on a massive North American headline run, supported by Emmure, UnityTX and Chamber, before heading to the UK to appear at Download Festival alongside Queens Of The Stone Age, Fall Out Boy, Avenged Sevenfold and more.

Alpha Wolf are also locked and loaded to whip Australia into a frenzy this August, headlining their Half Living Things Australian Tour alongside supports The Devil Wears Prada (USA), Invent Animate (USA) and thrown (SWE), with Melbourne's first show as well as Sydney and Newcastle entirely sold out, new dates in Melbourne and Sydney added, and venue upgrades in Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane due to overwhelming demand.
 

Alpha Wolf know how far they have come, but it's what lays ahead of them that's keeping the band hungry.

Alpha Wolf Share New Video "Whenever You're Ready"

Aussie metalcore behemoths Alpha Wolf have unveiled "Whenever You're Ready," a compelling and cathartic new cut taken from the band's upcoming third full length album, Half Living Things, due out Friday April 5 via Greyscale Records and SharpTone Records.

Pre-order it here.

Pushing their own limitless boundaries and exploring new musical terrain, "Whenever You're Ready" opens with hazy ambience before evolving with haunting beats and searing vocals, showcasing a bewitching new side of Alpha Wolf, built firmly around its soaring melodic chorus and stirring subject matter.

"Alpha Wolf like to let our listeners expect the unexpected at all times and 'Whenever You’re Ready' is a testament to exactly that," the band shares. "We could feel the impact of this song from the moment the first chords were written. Dancing around on our melodic side, this song touches on the complications between people with a deep connection to one another and ultimately losing them. Everyone has a story to tell in this regard and this is ours."

On album number three, Alpha Wolf harness and heighten their trademark intensity, crafting the self-produced Half Living Things in 2023 entirely on their own terms. A collection of tracks that are simultaneously heavy, fun as hell, and beating with chugs, grooves, melodics, breakdowns, and more, Half Living Things is a hard-hitting celebration of the entire Alpha Wolf sonic gamut that stings and salves equally with dazzling finesse.

  "There can be no inner conflict without the constant tug of war between desire and disdain, the things you want versus the things you need, or the things that make you feel alive against the parts of it that do not," Lochie shares about the album. "You cannot grow new parts without leaving the dead ones behind. You cannot be settled until you have truly known the opposite. Find out what makes you tick and just keep running around the clock until you're happy enough to die.”

The road has been far from easy for Alpha Wolf but they refuse to let anything stand in their way. Throughout the chaotic and turbulent times of the pandemic, the band released their sophomore album A Quiet Place To Die in 2020 to critical acclaim, including a #6 spot on the ARIA charts and a nomination for Best Heavy Album at the ARIA awards, and multiple sold-out shows around Australia, Europe, UK, U.S., and Asia.

In 2022, Alpha Wolf released a split EP, The Lost & The Longing, with Welsh rockers Holding Absence, and also launched CVLTFEST, their very own curated festival aimed to showcase the best Aussie talent in the heavy scene alongside some exciting international acts. And furthering their global reach to new heights in 2023, Alpha Wolf recently embarked on their biggest North American run to date with Motionless in White, and also tore up multiple stages at home earlier this year as part of the inaugural Knotfest Australia with Slipknot, Parkway Drive, and Megadeth.

Recently releasing the single "Bring Back The Noise," a neck-snapping delight that will also feature on Half Living Things, Alpha Wolf are also currently on the road supporting The Amity Affliction regionally, before headlining the return of their very own festival CVLTFEST in February, alongside Emmure, Crossfaith, Ocean Grove, and more.

Alpha Wolf know how far they have come, but it's what lays ahead of them that's keeping the band hungry.

Never ones to do anything in halves, Aussie metalcore behemoths Alpha Wolfreturn today with the announcement of their third full-length album Half Living Things, officially set to unleash on Friday, April 5 via Greyscale Records and SharpTone Records. Pre-order it here.

Leveling up the group's infamous ability to smash expectations and genre boundaries without breaking a sweat, Half Living Things is Alpha Wolf at their most potent and ferocious to date. And heralding the announcement of the upcoming album, the band has also released a sonic battering ram in the form of "Sucks 2 Suck," a brand new single featuring none other than the legendaryIce-T.

Watch the music video for "Sucks 2 Suck" featuring Ice-T below.

The ultimate fusion of hip hop and metalcore, "Sucks 2 Suck" is yet another ferocious party-starter from Alpha Wolf HQ, oozing with menacing grooves, grinding bounce, and vocalist Lochie transcending into beast mode alongside Ice-T's unforgettable verse, venomously declaring: "You coming for me? You gotta come better than that!"

"It's about biting back at anyone saying you didn't work hard for the shit you have," shares Lochie of the latest track. "If you had the ethic and tenacity, you'd have it too, but you suck, so you don't."

"We decided to shoot for the stars and reach out to Ice-T," adds guitarist Scottie. "We gave him no reference, but he did exactly what we were hoping for! It's classic."
