I am a music enthusiast with a deep love for the energy of crowded venues, loud music, & passionate fans. I have a diverse background that includes private security, talent buying, festival security planning, & media relations. I've also worked as a camera operator for various projects, including music videos featuring notable artists like Bernz, Tech N9ne, & Krizz Kaliko. Additionally, I am a camera operator for Full Moon Features, where I contribute to the production of horror movies.

Garbage are back with another single from their upcoming album No Gods No Masters. The new song is named “Wolves” and it’s available to stream below.

Like the album’s title track, “Wolves” may be a bold, guitar-driven number with a new wave synth that sees Garbage returning to form. Shirley Manson sings about a desperate love affair gone wrong with a twisted delivery. within the chorus, her vocals are especially breathy and eerie, transforming the narrator into an almost possessed-like figure.

“This song reminds me of my younger self, when there were two sides to my personality,” Manson explained in a press release. “I hurt so many people in my life, both knowingly and unknowingly, I’m sure. But when you’re young and in self-survival mode, much like a baby rattlesnake, you have no idea how strong your venom is. But it has the power to kill. You’re just out there having fun… This is the pop song off the record.”

In the song’s accompanying music video, viewers follow a handful of wolves as they sprint through a dark, animated world. Throughout, collages of individuals with extra-long tongues, flaming hair, and demonic shadows enter the frame, lending the song an ominous feeling over the blood-red backdrop.

No Gods No Masters is Garbage’s seventh studio album overall. Butch Vig previously called the album “dark and schizophrenic” in an interview with Consequence, which is certainly evident within the songs we’ve heard thus far — especially the lead single, “The Men Who Rule the World”.

No Gods No Masters is out on June 11th.
