“Seven Days a Week” b/w “Ah, Maria” (2023)
Goddamn Wolves’ latest track ‘Ah, Maria’ bursts forth with unapologetic energy, refusing to tiptoe around with a lengthy preamble – Right from the start, it dives headfirst into a tempest of gritty guitars and pounding drums, immediately setting a mood that’s equal parts ferocious and magnetic.
Chris Weilding’s vocals soar above the tumult, delivering a raw and impassioned performance that grips the listener’s attention with its gritty sincerity. The guitar work is sharp and incisive, weaving intricate melodies that snake through the tumultuous sonic landscape like flashes of lightning in a stormy sky.
There’s an undeniable epic quality to the track, as if each chord struck and each beat pounded is an exhortation to seize the moment and revel in the chaos. Yet, beneath the surface bravado, there’s a palpable sense of moodiness, a darkness lurking in the corners of the song’s frenetic energy. Drawing comparisons to bands like Mannequin Pussy and The Beths, Goddamn Wolves carve out their own niche in the indie rock scene with ‘Ah, Maria’. It’s a track that demands to be heard, a force to be reckoned with, and a testament to the band’s undeniable talent and unyielding passion for their craft. – Tits Upon Tyne
