Wolfsbane (band)

Wolfsbane are now notable for being vocalist Blaze Bayley's band before he went on to replace Bruce Dickinson in Iron Maiden and then pursue a solo career.

In addition to Bayley, the band's current lineup includes guitarist Jason "Jase" Edwards, bassist Jeff Hateley and drummer Steve Danger.

[3] Wolfsbane's second release, an EP titled All Hell's Breaking Loose Down at Little Kathy Wilson's Place, was released in 1990, followed a year later by the band's second full studio album Down Fall the Good Guys (1991), which gave them their only UK Singles Chart entry with "Ezy" charting at No.

Despite not achieving the level of success that Def American had expected, Wolfsbane played from clubs to larger venues during the late 1980s and early 1990s with several notable acts, including Iron Maiden, Motörhead, Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper, Anthrax, Overkill, Sepultura, Kreator, Dark Angel, King Diamond, Magnum, The Almighty, The Wildhearts, The Quireboys, among others.

The same year, the band released a live album, Massive Noise Injection, through the Bronze Company label.

[2] Jason Edwards, Jeff Hateley, and Steve Danger, the remaining members of Wolfsbane, joined with Jez 'Spencer' Housden to form the band Stretch in 1995.

[citation needed] On 9 September 2007, Wolfsbane reformed for a one off short set at the Rock of Ages Festival in Tamworth.

[11] On 15 December 2011, a video of the song "Smoke and Red Light" was added to the official Wolfsbane YouTube channel.

Special guest Givvi Flynn joined the band on stage for four of the shows to perform "Illusion of Love".

[13] Frontman Blaze Bayley confirmed in a February 2022 interview that the band was "listening to the rough mixes" of their new album and "finishing off a little bit here and there", and also expressed hope that it would be released in June.
