It has been two years since the release of Andrews sophomore album 'The Wolf' and so
continues much speculation made as to what the 3rd untitled album holds. What do we know
about the forthcoming release? Well we have had two tasters of what is in store, namely
'You will remember tonight' and 'Kicks and bricks' which are posted on the official site
www.andrewwk.com. YWRT is very reminisant, in my opinion, of 'The Wolf' while 'Kicks and
Bricks' seems to take us back to the wild, energy pulsating debut album, 'I Get Wet'. Both
songs show that Andrew W.K. is back, back to continue the party and show the World what
they have been missing out on.
'I Get Wet' is a masterpiece, 12 songs of raucous, hyperactive metal that whenever you
listen to it makes you want to jump around and yell at the top of your lungs. Ask me to
say the most prolific music moment of my life so far and I have no hesitation of saying
that it was pressing play on the CD and listening to each song in its entirety, feeling the
blood rush through my veins and the smile cross my face. While the album delights us with
the exploding riffs of 'Party Hard’ and 'Ready to die' there is also the thundering
magnitude of 'Got to do it' in which the immortal line 'Never Let Down' was born.
In September 2003 'The Wolf' hit the shelves; it was still propelled with Andrews
never-ending energy but took on a more mature approach. The album cover showed us that
much with a step away from the likes of the 'I Get Wet’ controversial photo. 'The Wolf'
amazed and drove fans into as much as a frenzy as its predecessor with the likes of 'Tear
it up' and 'Totally Stupid'. Andrews second offering didn't fail to impress.
We can only hope that the two snippets we have heard from the third album are a
continuation through out. Looking back over Andrews career the highly anticipated follow up
to 'The Wolf' can only be a success, Andrews dedication to raising up our lives with metal
mayhem can only go from strength to strength. While the World may not join us in our
Appreciation of Andrew Wilkes-Krier, one thing will always remain by his side, the support
of the Wolf Kult.
