Bad Wolves was formed in Los Angeles, California in 2017. The initial lineup included drummer John Boecklin, vocalist Tommy Vext, lead guitarist Doc Coyle, rhythm guitarist Chris Cain, and bassist Kyle Konkiel. The band quickly gained recognition following the release of their debut single, “Learn to Live,” in May 2017. Their second single, “Toast to the Ghost,” followed in November 2017. A significant turning point came in January 2018 with their cover of The Cranberries’ “Zombie.” This single became highly successful, charting on multiple Billboard charts, peaking at number 23 on the Billboard 200, reaching number 9 in Australia, and topping the US Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. Their debut studio album, “Disobey,” was released in May 2018. During this period, Bad Wolves toured with prominent bands such as Five Finger Death Punch, Shinedown, Breaking Benjamin, and Starset.
In July 2019, Bad Wolves released a new single, “I’ll Be There,” followed shortly by “Killing Me Slowly” and “Sober.” These tracks were part of their second album, “N.A.T.I.O.N.,” which was released on October 25, 2019. “Killing Me Slowly” also achieved success on the Mainstream Rock Songs chart. In January 2021, original lead vocalist Tommy Vext departed the band and was subsequently replaced by Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz. The band released their third album, “Dear Monsters,” on October 29, 2021, and expanded upon it with the “Sacred Kiss” EP in July 2022. Their fourth studio album, “Die About It,” was released in 2023. Bad Wolves have shared stages with artists including Nickelback, Papa Roach, and Nothing More. Their cover of “Zombie” was nominated for an iHeartRadio Rock Song of the Year award. Over the years, the band has experienced member changes, with John Boecklin being the sole continuous member, and Chris Cain being the only other original member to return.
In 2024, Bad Wolves officially welcomed former Issues guitarist AJ Rebollo, who had previously toured with them, and Kevin Creekman joined as the new bassist in April 2025. These additions further shaped the band’s lineup and musical direction. Bad Wolves’ musical style has been described as a blend of alternative metal, groove metal, djent, and hard rock, incorporating elements of R&B, hip-hop, pop, and gospel. This diverse approach has contributed to their broad appeal within the heavy music scene.
