Their vision unfolded across albums such as Captors [2012], VxV [2014], Types & Shadows [2016], Eclipse [2019], and Eulogies [2022]. Blabbermouth rated the latter “9.0-out-of-10.0,” while mxdwn summed it up as “powerfully moving.” Along the way, the group tallied tens of millions of streams fueled by the likes of “Counterfeit,” “Deadman,” “Lowborn,” “Peace That Starts The War,” and more. Not to mention, they’ve performed alongside everyone from The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and Red to Fit For A King, August Burns Red, and Born Of Osiris. In 2024, a core idea screamed out to guitarist Steve Cobucci, shaping the creative direction of the band’s next evolution. It slowly, but surely seeped into the DNA of the music and his words. The band released WASTELAND the following year. WOLVES AT THE GATE ARE: Steve Cobucci — Vocals/Guitar Nick Detty — Vocals Joey Alarcon — Guitar Abishai Collingsworth — Drums Ben Summers — Bass |
