60 Second With… Wolfpack

wolfpack20131bw.jpg

Define your genre in five words or less:

Not for profit punk thrash.

 

So, someone is walking past as you guys are playing, they then go get a beer and tell their friend about you… what do they say?

Bloody hell, so not only are this band totally nuts live with a singing drummer and mad riffs but they also give all their profits to charity and animal welfare. They’ve raised over $17,000 so far. You have to come check Wolfpack out.”

 

What has been your favourite gig you’ve played to date?

We’ve been really lucky to have done some amazing tours with everyone from Dead Kennedys to DRI and also Corrosion of Conformity and CJ Ramone. But our fave gigs are the ones with heaps of rad locals playing. Australia has an amazing, diverse array of heavy acts and it is always awesome catching up with old mates and finding new local bands that totally shred.

 

What inspires or has influenced your music the most?

My kelpie Riot and cat Charlotte, vodka, cider, good friends, hard times and the manipulation of our lives by money and media.

 

Do you have any record releases to date? What? Where can I get it?

We have two EPs, one was a fundraiser for Lost Dogs Home and the other for The Save A Dog Scheme, but they are long sold out. However, our debut album is available now. It is a benefit release for Victorian Dog Rescue and is out on revered North American punk label Sudden Death Records.

See WOLFPACK at the Free West Papua benefit gig on Saturday June 27 at The Brunswick Hotel. It’s a great cause for an excellent organisation and is free entry with donations accepted.
