Powerwolf release new music video for ‘Beast Of Gévaudan’

POWERWOLF have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Beast Of Gévaudan, is taken from the German power metal band’s upcoming new album, Call Of The Wild, which is scheduled to be released in July this year.

Speaking about the new song, guitarist Matthew Greywolf says, “we are more than proud to present Beast of Gévaudan, the first song off our upcoming album, Call Of The Wild. The story behind the song couldn’t fit better into the world of POWERWOLF: It’s about a mysterious beast that killed countless people in the south of France at the end of the 18th century. The beast was never caught and there have always been many legends surrounding the events, up to the interpretation of the clergy, who saw the beast as ‘God’s punishment’ or even as a ‘savior of mankind from the worldly and sinful existence.”

Speaking about the new album, Matthew Greywolf adds, “with Call Of The Wild, we are opening a new, exciting chapter in the history of POWERWOLF. The album sounds unmistakably like POWERWOLF and is so much more at the same time: Besides new territory like the Celtic instrumentation in Blood for Blood (Faoladh) or the ballad like Alive or Undead we have raised all our trademarks to a new level. Until now, we never sounded so powerful and wild – in the truest sense of the word. We can’t wait to finally share this beast of an album with you all!”

Call Of The Wild is set for release on July 9th via Napalm Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
