New York, NY, Friday, October 25, 2019 — Today, mainstream rock breakout band Bad Wolves release their sophomore album, N.A.T.I.O.N., worldwide via Eleven Seven Music, available now to order HERE. The album was produced by vocalist Tommy Vext and drummer John Boecklin. Bad Wolves have proven to be the unprecedented global breakthrough rock act of 2018 and aim to continue that momentum with N.A.T.I.O.N. The stunning 12-track follow-up to their debut album, Disobey, is a bit of a departure – staying in the same realm musically, but pushing beyond. A few highlights from the album include the heavier, riff-driven lead-off track “I’ll Be There,” followed by band favorite “No Messiah,” the melodic rock anthem “Killing Me Slowly,” radio-friendly ballad “Sober,” rock banger “Crying Game” and bookend “LA Song.”
“N.A.T.I.O.N. is a representation of our fan base,” says Vext. Although the band has yet to disclose the full meaning behind the album title, the cover photo was shot by renowned photographer Haris Nukem. “When I saw the tattoo of the wolf, it reminded me of the thousands and thousands of fans that message us that they have our wolf logo tattooed on them. The wolf is a representation of our fan base, and to me, that’s what Bad Wolves Nation is. It’s our transparency and our art as it translates to people. We drew this bigger circle around our smaller circle of people, our wolf pack, who didn’t feel like they belonged. That’s what it means to us: it’s like you don’t have to be alone anymore. Haris did an exceptional job of really capturing a vulnerable moment, keeping it sexy and in line with our overall vision for the album art.”
The “Killing Me Slowly” music video was directed by Nick Peterson on location in Los Angeles, CA. Lyrically, the song tackles the backlash of infidelity, and the consequences of when someone sets unbreakable boundaries, and in the end loses the thing they love the most, due to their own faults. It features actress Erin Sanders (Melissa and Joey, Guilty at 17) and actor and fitness model Kevin Creekman. Watch it HEREHERE
