Bad Wolves Drop Pulsing New Song ‘The Body’ Ahead of Upcoming EP

Though Bad Wolves released Dear Monsters last year, they've got some fresh music arriving today with the new track "The Body," and the song is the precursor to a new EP set to arrive later this summer.

It's a track that brims with pulsing ferocity out of the gate, channeling some killer low end before giving way to more melodic verses by the band's singer D.L. Laskiewicz. “When we were writing this song we had a goal of trying new things,” said drummer John Boecklin. “The slap bass and clavichord instantly was new territory for Bad Wolves. It feels good to know this track sounds like nothing we have ever done before. It’s a fun track that feels like a mix of Faith No More with a dash of Daft Punk. Enjoy!”

The song arrives with a brand new lyric video directed by Nicholas Hippa. Get a closer look at the lyrics and if you like what you hear, the track is available via multiple platforms here.

Bad Wolves, "The Body" Lyrics

I'm on the phone just
Plotting the plan, trust
You wouldn’t dare
Nor try to conceive
The taller the steeple
Confessing seems evil
I just gotta ask, what's in this for me?

One by one
Taking my time
Taking my time, yea
One by one
Taking my time

You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the body goes
And they will never ever let you go
Oh no no
You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the body goes
And they will never ever let you go
Oh lord no no

(And they will never ever let you go, oh no no)

I gave you some insight
Born from the best crime
This poker face, it seems like a dream
Showers won’t save me
No stranger to blaming
All of the cost and the loss on me

One by one
Taking my time
Taking my time, yea
One by one
Taking my time

You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the body goes
And they will never ever let you go
Oh no no

You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the body goes
And they will never ever let you go
Oh lord no no

You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the body goes
And they will never ever let you go
Oh no no

You gotta take it where too far is known
Take us where the bodies go
And they will never ever let you go
Oh lord no no

(And they will never ever let you go, oh no no)
(And they will never ever let you go, oh no no)

Oh lord no no
