On this episode of You Make The Scene, we welcome back Steve Cobucci of Wolves at the Gate—his first time on the show since Episode 109 in March 2022—for a deep and thoughtful conversation centered around the band’s upcoming album Wasteland, dropping May 30th via Solid State Records.
This time around, the focus is on the heart of the record. Steve walks us through the powerful message behind Wasteland, diving into the album’s concept and the journey of the central character at its core. We talk about the emotional and spiritual weight woven into the lyrics, and how Steve puts himself in the right headspace to write with such clarity and conviction.
The conversation also touches on the process of building a soundscape that doesn’t just carry the songs, but enhances and reflects the themes at every turn. From cinematic moments to crushing heaviness, Wasteland is shaping up to be one of the band’s most immersive records yet.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the band, this episode offers a great look into the creative depth and intentional storytelling that Wolves at the Gate brings to the table. Tune in for a conversation that goes beyond the surface and into the heart of the music.
