When looking back on the massive year AlphaWolf had in 2023, it's nothing but bucket list goal after goal. From playing the inaugural Knotfest in Australia, to touring the US alongside Motionless In White and Knocked Loose - the band played 111 shows worldwide and certified their status as the next big band from down under to explode on an international scale.With one new song released that took us by surprise and foundations set up for another huge year in 2024 - including playing the first-ever Park Waves Festival, heading to the UK for Download Festival AND crafting the sickest lineup of CVLTFEST yet - there's no denying the entire heavy music scene will know who AlphaWolf are by this time next year.Until then, look back at the year that was with Sabian Lynch's #WoSYearInReview

FAV AUSTRALIAN ACT YOU CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF RIGHT NOW
It’s gotta be Polaris, everything they’re doing for heavy music in Australia and worldwide we can all take a lesson from, the latest album is flawlesshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvECsj3mIF8
BEST GIG YOU PLAYED THIS YEAR AND WHY?
We got the chance of a lifetime to support Motionless In White across North America, every show was absolute insanity but one in particular was in Salt Lake City. We got to play an open air stage on the edge of the Salt Lakes and during our set time we had the most incredible sunset and it was the most stunning view we’ve ever had, not to mention our reception at that show was amazing.https://www.instagram.com/p/Cz3YxyppOxR/
TELL US A CORE MEMORY FROM A MUSIC FESTIVAL SET
Walking out to start our set at Knotfest Melbourne, by far the largest show we’d ever played and my eyes definitely watered up, there’s people that I wish I could’ve shared that moment with that aren’t with us anymore and all the emotions kicked into overdrive. We then made sure to absolutely slay the set without any hiccups (we had a major technical issue 10pm the night before but Void of Vision saved us) and I think the energy rubbed off on everyone in attendance.

BIGGEST HOLY SHIT MOMENT FOR YOU THIS YEAR?
I can’t tell you this because it is a secret, but we did something this year that will have the entire heavy world saying “holy shit” in unison early next year.
ANY SNEAK PEEKS OF INBOUND PLANS NEXT YEAR?
It’s not a secret that we’ve been working really hard in between tours on new music, you had your first taste with Bring Back The Noise last month but the main course is right around the corner. We’ll also be embarking on some of our biggest headline shows to date, it’s time to bring the full show back home.https://www.instagram.com/p/C0ASFj1y3Rp/
BEST ADVICE GOING INTO 2024?
Shit can be tough sometimes, some days harder than others but life is what you make it, if you want something only you can make it happen. Also, try not to ever be too serious, have fun, live a little and just be fuckin nice to everyone.Written by Sabian Lynch@sabianlynch
