Wolf Gang Thread.

Maple · 04-07-2012, 06:01 PM

After seeing them live here in Miami, I simply fell in love with their music. The way they play fitted the concert as a whole instead of when Robyn played. Personally, they sound a whole lot more lively while performing live (Guess it makes sense xD). So, what's your thoughts an opinions on them?

Shredder2 · 04-07-2012, 06:12 PM

I'm considering getting into their music. My dad ran into the singer a bit after their set was over. He asked him for a pick, but didn't had one on him! NOOOOO!

Reilly · 05-07-2012, 02:00 AM

^Picks are pretty cheap though.

Violet · 05-07-2012, 05:19 AM

Wolf Gang are better than Robyn, anyway, so that makes sense.

They're cool, though. I like them.

Corkus · 05-07-2012, 08:10 AM

Not sure what Wolf Gang has to do with Robyn, considering they're two entirely different genres, but whatever, I've seen both live and both are great.

Caught Wolf Gang several months ago only knowing a couple songs, but his whole set was extremely energetic and brought a decent early-day crowd.

Violet · 05-07-2012, 07:15 PM

They both opened for Coldplay on certain legs of this tour. The only reason I know that is because I visited the Coldplay Live subforum.

I'm falling in love with them after seeing them on Monday. Bought Suego Faults and am loving it

Oh guise; some of you missed out then. We've just wrapped up a Wolf Gang Q&A over on the Live subforum.

But anyway, this thread is long overdue.

It is no secret I love Wolf Gang; a lot. I've seen them 3 times (once at The Great Escape, one headline tour of his and when he was on the NME tour). Each time the show has been superb and I've got to say that Suego Faults was one of my favourite albums from 2011.

I've also met Max a few times and hung out with him on some occasions. And he is absolutely lovely (even if when I first met him, he was absolutely stunned that I had paid £80 to see Coldplay and hadn't listened to VLV or MX

irony)

Also-- a question I have been meaning to pose. Would you say it is a 'him' or a 'them' for Wolf Gang? I mean, it is Max that writes and records all the music (or at least he did for Suego Faults) but he has a band he takes with him on tour which has been the same line up each time...?

Violet · 08-07-2012, 10:49 PM

I've been wondering about that same question. I had to refrain from asking certain questions in the Q&A because I wasn't sure. I guess the question would be if the band he tours with is just that-a touring band. According to Wiki, he has had that same live line-up since 2009, yet he recorded "Suego Faults" himself.

Corkus · 08-07-2012, 10:50 PM

I refer to Wolf Gang as a "him". Kind of like how I refer to Beirut or Bright Eyes as "him" rather than "them" because I like getting super technical like that, I guess.

Violet · 08-07-2012, 11:10 PM

Yeah, when you put it that way, it makes a bit more sense.

Is Bon Iver still a "him," though, or is it a "them," since he worked with a band on the second album?

Nattatouille · 08-07-2012, 11:32 PM

^^Fair point actually.

I do class it as a him most of the time... But as more people have discovered Wolf Gang the instances of 'them/their' rocketed. Which made me doubt myself.

Admittedly, I corrected the woman next to me at Snow Patrol when she was like: 'Oh Wolf Gang, they were quite good. I didn't think their lead singer really did the rest of them justice.'

RAGEQUIT.

Cheese Nip 2 · 09-07-2012, 06:35 PM

I saw these guys last night, and they were awesome! I'm gonna go look for their record today. I think these guys have a lot of potnetial and I'd love to see them live again!

PS: At my show we were given the oppurtunity to meet them. Did anyone here meet the band? The line was about 2 hours long, and I waited a while but eventually I left (cause I didn't want to miss Coldplay, and at the rate the line was going I would miss their first song). I made eye contact though

Violet · 10-07-2012, 12:20 AM

Natt here ^^ (who organized the Wolf Gang Q&A) has actually chilled with Max (the mastermind of Wolf Gang) several times. I imagine that's how she was able to set that up in the first place. (Which is totally cool, BTW. Thanks for taking the time and effort to organize that.

)
