The band are giving fans a taste of the ferocity to come with the release of the first single, 'Stand Alone Complex'. Careening off the rails with frantic snare blasts and caterwauling riffage, 'Stand Alone Complex' is not only the first track released from the forthcoming Find Your Worth, Come Home, but it also serves as the first sample of the unhinged vocals of new To Speak Of Wolves frontman Gage Speas, the spark plug driving this band into wild new territories with an album they never dreamed they could make.

"Musically, we feel this song is a great first look into the new record," says drummer and founding member Phil Chamberlain. "It's a fast and intense song, a good mix stylistically from the new album as a whole. The song features guest vocals by Micah Kinard from OH, SLEEPER on the bridge and has one of our favorite guitar riffs as a climatic ending."
"Lyrically, Gage wrote about a time in his life when he was questioning his relationship with God, and the subsequent realization that a person can only decide for themselves the status of that relationship, instead of letting the actions of those around you influence that decision," he adds. "The song also deals with the people in Gage's life at the time, like Micah, who helped him come to that realization and understanding that God is real no matter what is going on in the world around you."

The band's first album with dynamic new frontman Gage Speas, Find Your Worth, Come Home sees the revitalized lineup reaching into darker, heavier and faster territory. It’s an album of rediscovery, and an album that freshly stamps what To Speak Of Wolves is about, from the title on down.

“The title is about we've been doing - finding ourselves as a band, proving what are and doing what we do best,” explains Phil Chamberlain. “This record is something that we're incredibly proud of. We've gotten a lot of compliments about how intense we are live and I don't think that came across on the first album. This time around we went into the recording process wanting to make sure to capture that intensity, and I think we did that."

"We couldn't be more stoked and proud of what we've created with this album,” Chamberlain exclaims. “We are excited and can't wait to share it with everyone!"

Find Your Worth, Come Home is the follow-up to To Speak Of Wolves' heralded 2010 debut, Myself < Letting Go, which catapulted the band onto the national stage with its road-rash riffage and soaring, arena-worthy choruses. Relentless touring alongside likeminded bands such as UNDEROATH, AUGUST BURNS RED and BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME underscored the fact that the Greensboro, NC quintet were a force to be reckoned with. The band quickly became a beacon within the hard rock and metalcore scene, despite – or perhaps because of – their unwillingness to become yet another facsimile spewing forth endless breakdowns and Auto-Tuned choruses. To Speak Of Wolves refused to do either, and fans loved them all the more for it.

Now, driven by the dominating vocal presence of Speas, To Speak Of Wolves are ready to blow the doors wide open. “We're now completely on the same page as a band and couldn't be happier," Chamberlain assures. "We've never had more fun."
