Battle of the 1Bands

WINTER WOLF

Winter Wolf, once a two-piece now a four-piece band, hailing from NY/NJ began within the mind of Jehiel Winters. The band’s gritty, dark, and fast sound comes from a melting pot of different influences from the shock horror sounds of Screamin Jay Hawkins to the raw punching range of bands like Motorhead, and the duo vocal charges with a fast yet groovy punk beats reminiscent of Biohazard, just to name a few of their influences. “Nasty” Nate (who also plays in MAAFA) joined the band in August 2018 after the departure of the original drummer as a fill-in but soon remained full-time not long after. Tony $yxx, who initially joined as an announcer, jumped on as a full 2nd vocalist after being given the chance by Jehiel in 2019 at a Skatepark show in Queens. The band consists of Jey on Bass/Vox, Tony $yxx on Vox, Nate on drums, and Xvaiver who joined in 2022 on 2nd Bass. We originally called our genre Harlem Rhythm Punk but soon changed it to Afro-Surreal Punk, blending Hardcore, and Rock & Roll, with components of Soul and Gospel while also using the concept of Horror with the Realism of everyday life.
