“It’s a story I think a lot of people can relate to, not only musicians. It’s like the boxer who’s on his last legs. He still has an opportunity. You really can’t count anyone out.”

—Vocalist Kevin Martin on themes of survival through highs and lows.[2]

Wolves is a 2021 studio album by American grunge band Candlebox. The album was recorded in late 2019 into early 2020, but release was pushed back due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] The album continues exploring pop rock that started with 2016's Disappearing in Airports and has received positive reviews from critics.

Reception

Writing for Classic Rock, Malcolm Dome gave this album a 7 out of 10, writing that the band "are still a force", writing that it is "another winner "laced with the instant melodic sensibility and spikey grunge style rhythms which have always been the Seattle band’s trademark".[3] Glide Magazine's Jeremy Lukens wrote that Candlebox "still has some good rock music to share" and that the album successfully mixes hard rock with lighter pop tunes.[4]
