The Underground Stage
“Raised As Wolves sound absolutely bloody furious tonight. Not just a bit of a huff, not a low miff, but absolutely raging with anger. They’ve always been right on the edge of a blazing temper, but tonight these wild songs push right up against a towering, thundering mood that tears the earlobes off. Yikes, and […]
“Raised As Wolves’ jagged songs rip through timbers, liable to take off a thumb if you’re not paying attention. Balancing intensity and immediacy on the same pinhead is never easy, but you find yourself right there on the sharp point, one misstep from drawing blood, and not caring at all.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | […]
“So anyway, I’ve not seen Raised As Wolves in a while but catching the set again is like seeing your best friend for the first time in ages, with the jumping and the screaming and the arm waving and the general lack of dignity. Few things fire up the synapses in the way that these […]

Obviously, the highlight of their day was making it onto the cover […]
“I know, one of my constant refrains is that Raised As Wolves are one of the very best bands in Australia right now. It’s hard to say that over and over again, and be right each time. Won’t someone think of me for a change? Seriously, saying this band rules in a thousand different ways […]

It’s when they take the best of Australian garage, douse it in Replacements-level sharpness, and then set it […]
“Every note Raised As Wolves play is the key in the ignition of your night out. This is a set of songs so sharp they can’t be sold to children in supermarkets, songs with such pulsating joy in them that it spills off the stage and collects in our boots. It’s a set that puts […]
