Following the recent release of his EP \u201cExtinction\u201d which featured musical legends Robert Wyatt and Daevid Allen, Vanderwolf has put forth an album of 12 original tracks available on vinyl and digital download – his first LP under his own name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vanderwolf re-emerges with \u201c12 Little Killers\u201d an eclectic collection that includes the deliciously oozing slice of psychedelia of the single \u201cGlisten,\u201d which is heavily-slanted toward melting analogue synthesizers (Sam Sallon) and rich layers of acoustic guitars (Chris Cordoba) and an exquisite vocal by Max Vanderwolf.
Recorded by producer Chris Wyles at his south London studio, the 12 songs were selected, mixed and compiled by keyboardist and co-producer Sam Sallon. It\u2019s available in a limited pressing of 500.
Says Max, \u201cThese 12-tracks, present human fallibility in its many forms – greed, anxiety, lust, self-debasement, our seemingly limitless capacity to hurt others \u2013 it\u2019s all there. It was important to have a visual identity that carries these themes.\u201d
Vanderwolf\u2019s music spans a wide-range of genres from global beats to hard blues to fragile balladry to prog-rock monstrosities and beyond. With a vast back catalogue of songs to release, Vanderwolf is set to get his wild and restless music out to the world.
Born in NYC, working in London and as of 2020 residing in Los Angeles, Max Vanderwolf has recorded several albums and countless songs. Most of them remain unreleased. Notably, he was vocalist and creative-force behind the semi-legendary London band, Last Man Standing, whose sole album in 2008 received plaudits from many including Mojo and Uncut.
Concurrent to his life in music, Vanderwolf has worked under an assumed name as a music programmer and concert producer in some of the worlds\u2019 most celebrated clubs and venues. He went from overseeing the legendary underground downtown NYC\u2019s Knitting Factory to overseeing London\u2019s Royal Festival Hall, where for 9 years he produced the Meltdown Festival where he worked closely with David Bowie, Patti Smith, Jarvis Cocker, Massive Attack and others. He has produced concerts in Brooklyn, Rome and Paris working closely with John Cale, Sparks and the Residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With more music from these London sessions being mixed and an album\u2019s worth of new material being recorded in Los Angeles, Max Vanderwolf is diving headlong into the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vanderwolf \u201c12 Little Killers\u201d will be released on July 20, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
