Wolves At The Gate - VxV (2014)

From small town America, the Cedarvale, Ohio based foursome, Wolves At The Gate, are set to drop their second full length, VxV (pronounced “five by five”), on June 10th. Stylistically, Wolves At the Gate have been hard to confine into a single genre. Their blending of soft rock, hard rock, and hardcore has always kept the listener on the edge of their seat. Defining themselves as post-hardcore is only an approximation of their sound. The band has continued to carry this broad focus into VxV, but with new elements.Many (read most) Christian bands produce music that looks at various aspects of faith, world, and social situations. Lyrically, VxV from Wolves At The Gate, stays on a single track as the songs remained focused on the redemptive power found in Christ’s love. Their previous release was the solid effort, Captors, but, both musically and lyrically, VxV leaves the band’s previous work in the dust. VxV reveals how much Wolves at The Gate have artistically matured since Captors and in doing so have expanded their music into the realm of greatness.
