Southern California’s long running Triple Axe Attack, LEATHERWOLF, have released the «Wolfman» video, including footage from the band’s celebrated 2015 Keep It True festival appearance in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany. The audio track was mixed by legendary producer/engineer Chris Tsangarides (JUDAS PRIEST, THIN LIZZY, ANVIL) at Ecology Room Studios in Kent, England and mastered by Tom Baker (JUDAS PRIEST, ALICE COOPER, AVENGED SEVENFOLD) at Baker Mastering in Calabasas, CA.
Drummer Dean Roberts states:
«Our bass player, Pat (Guyton), originally came up with the idea to do this video since we had a bunch of unused footage from Keep It True XVIII that just sat on the shelves so to speak».
«A few months ago, we hooked up with Chris (Tsangarides) and gave him a song to do a test mix. We were blown away by what he came back with – he’s just awesome! «Kill And Kill Again» off our debut album has always been a favorite of ours to play live so we got together with editor Michael Lyle and had him edit this cool «lupine» footage around the live visuals which makes for a pretty neat concept. I think the fans will get a kick out of it when they see it!»
