Talk:Bad Wolves

Supergroup?

How exactly does this group get defined as a "Supergroup" when most of the members are from bands that are obscure at best. Only the member from In This Moment is from a well known band, and even then they aren't all that well known by the general public.

Supergroup used to always mean a group formed from members of other well established very successful bands known to the general public, not just to a small percentage of fans of a certain genre.

This in no way is a condemnation of the band for their music or styles, but this isn't a supergroup.

Given a lot of the bands on the "supergroup" page however, it seems at least this band has one hit song. It is unfortunate how the rules regarding what a supergroup even is are watered down to such an extent that the actual supergroups don't get the recognition they deserve.

I don't think this subject is even up for discussion. Reliable source said it, DevilDriver is a band that is in turn started from a successful band (Coal Chamber), and God Forbid made a huge impact on the metalcore scene, however poor its own page may be. Don't believe this is arguable. dannymusiceditor ^oops 15:59, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Your response, in reality, hurts your argument. The only member from DevilDriver (whatever that is) that is in Bad Wolves, never played in Coal Chamber. Shouldn't successful groups be defined by album sales and popularity overall, rather than a strong following only within the genre they play in? Isn't that what "success" within the music world is derived from, and ultimately, a LOT of success would lead to being called a "supergroup"? RTShadow (talk) 00:22, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

A supergroup known best from other band's cover?? Be serious. Did they achievied anything, except this cover? I personally never heard of this group, band members or any band named in article which they used to belong to.

Not a supergroup - as defined by wikipedia

Supergroup as defined by Wikipedia - A supergroup is a music group whose members have successful solo careers or are part of other groups or well known in other musical professions. Usually used in the context of rock and pop music, the term has been applied to other musical genres such as opera.

List of Supergroups - in accordance with the definition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_supergroups

I don't see any evidence that any of the members of this group having a solo career, and according to the post they are all ex-members of various groups. However obscure the groups may be, if they were still members of other groups then they would fit the definition. In any case they don't, so this designation needs to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmc07 (talk • contribs) 20:19, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

No, it doesn't. Just because you see a definition left on Wikipedia doesn't mean that it's always the case for every instance. The part where you said they still have to be in said other band is just plain incorrect. dannymusiceditor ^oops 21:14, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

"This followed a context in which..."

What does "context" mean here? It doesn't make sense to me. Perhaps it should say "conversation", "altercation", "press release", or some such thing? 2A00:23C5:FE1C:3701:947F:B029:98CA:1E06 (talk) 15:22, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

The past year has been crazy, so here’s the abridged version.

For anyone trying to keep score, the rough timeline is:

April 2025: Bad Wolves lose both Doc Coyle and Kyle Konkiel.

Former guitarist Chris Cain returns, and Kevin Creekman joins on bass.

May–June 2025: vocalist Daniel 'DL' Laskiewicz joins Falling in Reverse on bass, wipes Bad Wolves from Instagram.

August 2025: "Say It Again" gets re-released with The Rasmus, and a deluxe edition of Die About It is announced.

Around the same time, Chris Cain seemingly backs out again and starts working with former singer Tommy Vext.

Late 2025: social media activity almost completely dries up.

April 2026: Kevin Creekman removes Bad Wolves from his bio and unfollows the band.

Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Sara Skinner (aka Killboy) publicly states she's the new lead singer and is recording a new Bad Wolves album.

Honestly, the Sara Skinner development is the biggest twist here. If everything she's said publicly is accurate, then Bad Wolves may effectively be entering a third major era: The Tommy Vext era, The Daniel 'DL' Laskiewicz era, and now potentially the Sara Skinner era. ~2026-35353-63 (talk) 19:46, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Fascinating read, but we can't include any of it if we don't have reliable sources reporting on it, per WP:V. See WP:RSMUSIC for the spurt of sources that generally work. Sergecross73 msg me 14:17, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

Can't really knock that this might make it easier to research, though. At least it was put here and not unsourced on the main page. Never mind, just looked at the edit history... mftp dan ^oops 14:37, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

They better make an announcement soon, otherwise, we miiiiiight have to completely redo the whole article. ~2026-35353-63 (talk) 12:48, 20 June 2026 (UTC)
