Australian hardcore punk band She Cries Wolf have surprised fans with some new music today.

The band have unveiled their three-song I EP, which is out on digital services right now. A single from the release titled “The Beggar's Well” is available to listen below. Vocalist Luke Gallows said this about the new song:

"Never feeling like enough, always striving for perfection. Whilst writing this song I felt like I was really drawing out some of those instances and experiences. Sharing my own feelings, whilst commenting on the human condition we all feel. Personally, I have felt better than ever over recent years and attribute this to now believing that perfection is an unachievable horizon, that should always be strived for but never attained."

When it comes to the new three-song release, Gallows stated:

"Collectively as a band we all played a very integral part in how these songs came to be. Everyone’s influence or voice was listened to because we felt like this music was for us and we’d never leave our houses/city’s again. I think with Kyal and I living next door to each other there were a lot of nitpicking conversations about 1% parts of songs and sounds we would scratch our heads over for days.

Before the pandemic Zach from The Ghost Inside had lent a hand in some of this process. We got talking and started looking at guitar tones and more inspiration with the songs. I decided to reach out to to an old friend of mine, Gregory Thomas (ex misery signals, END), and began getting his input for the songs and the production side of things, including re-amping. The guy is an absolute lord for guitar tone and vibe - and it doesn't hurt at all that he is an all round legend.

While working with Greg and Zach we planned on working with Lance Prenc on the recording side of this (Polaris, Alpha Wolf, Void of Vision). With the pandemic outbreaks and tours being cancelled/shifted the timelines for tracking became difficult to align, he suggested we track with Michael Campbell from Crucible Sound (Vengeance), who is an absolute legend.

I believe all of this together collectively helped us see the vision/end result we have achieved with these tracks. The hyperbolic time chamber of a global pandemic forced us to grow, write and see the best of our abilities in new music."

She Cries Wolf will have a record release show on July 2 at The Zoo in Brisbane. The show will feature performances from Headwreck, Trust, Blind Girls, and Salt Money. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now.
