"It's difficult to express how excited I am to get back on the road again with the boys," says BAD WOLVES guitarist Doc Coyle. "Co-headlining with a powerhouse like POP EVIL will be a real treat for fans of both bands and will keep us on our toes to bring our A-game every night. It's a true honor to share the stage with them, SIERRA PILOT and ONI. BAD WOLVES will be performing an eclectic set including songs from 'Die About It' that we haven't played yet, and I'm sure some surprises. The band is firing on all cylinders right now, and this will be a hell of a way to close out 2024. LFG, Wolfpack!!!"
"We are stoked to announce 'The Animal Instinct Tour' with our friends in BAD WOLVES." shares POP EVIL. "This tour will be full of high energy and radio hits from start to finish. Can't wait to see you all out there!"

POP EVIL has made a striking comeback with their fiery new single, "What Remains." This track heralds a new era for the band, promising their heaviest sound to date. It has already made waves, becoming the No. 1 Most Added song with 55 stations and debuting at No. 33 on the active rock radio charts, with its ranking on the rise.
Leigh Kakaty, the band's lead vocalist, reflected on the new single: "I've faced many struggles—losses, setbacks, and tough challenges. It takes a deep reckoning to reveal our true selves. What endures through these trials is our essence. 'What Remains' captures that essence and sets the tone for our most lyrically intense and sonically powerful album yet."
Kakaty also introduced the newest member of the band, drummer Blake Allison, who replaces the departing Hayley Cramer. Allison joins Kakaty, guitarists Dave Grahs and Nick Fuelling, and bassist Joey "Chicago" Walser in the revamped lineup.

This album features the hit single "Legends Never Die," which reached No. 3 on the Active Rock radio charts, and the powerful track "Hungry For Life" featuring Grammy-nominated Chris Daughtry. Co-produced by Josh Gilbert (AS I LAY DYING), Boecklin, and DL, Die About It combines heavy riffs, catchy melodies, and exceptional musical talent. BAD WOLVES has also achieved five No. 1 active rock radio singles and garnered 1.8 billion global streams and over 750 million video views throughout their career.
