POWERWOLF

Call Of The Wild

NAPALM

Germany’s high-powered lycanthropes claw their way to world domination

IN 2009 A werewolfworshipping band of corpsepainted priests asked us to raise our phalluses to the sky. It was an unapologetic display of novelty power metal that propelled Powerwolf into the limelight. In 2021 Call Of The Wild is a summation of Powerwolf’s ambition. While they might once have been regarded as naff blasphemers, the band’s current incarnation is not to be sniffed at, and their ballsy eighth album is chock-full of epic trademark tales about long-toothed fiends.
