Wolves was an emocore band from Amherst , Massachusetts / United States .
history
The two guitarists Tim Glowik and Brad Wallace , who had learned to play guitar together, founded the band in 2000. After some back and forth, the band reorganized. A new bass player was now part of the band and completed the line-up that still exists today. In 2001 the first recording with the screamo band Ampere was released, in which drummer Andy Skelly also plays. In 2004 the band broke up.
style
The band plays a typical - even if more strongly attributed to the Screamo - emotional hardcore style. Characteristic are the changes between accusatory-melodic and screamed and half-screamed vocals, between calm and angry and very quiet and loud. The somewhat chaotic song structures, which alternate between somewhat trodden parts and more brutal explosions, are particularly formative.
The style of the band is described by the label Level Plane Records as follows:
"At their best Wolves was a band firmly rooted in emo hardcore of the early to mid nineties, but had ambition to make their influences uniquely their own."
