Alpha Wolf is an Australian metalcore band, originally from Burnie, Tasmania, currently located in Melbourne, Victoria. Bassist/founding vocalist John Arnold stated that “the name Alpha Wolf came from the movie ‘The Grey’”. Their debut album Mono was released on 14 July 2017 and had reached #29 on the ARIA Albums Chart during its first week of release.[1]

On 9 February 2018, lead vocalist Aidan Ellaz was removed from the band. In June 2018, Lochie Keogh and Mitch Fogarty were announced as new members.[2] Ellaz went on to join the band Dealer, which also consists of members of Northlane, Iconoclast and Codeine King.

Mono (2017)

The band's 2017 debut is titled Mono. This is short for monochromatic, which means, "involving or producing visual images in a single color or in varying tones of a single color". [3] This title and its association tease the lyrical content which deals strongly in themes of trauma and depression. [4]
