Chord Progression

3 years ago, Steven from Wolves At The Gate joined us on the Chord Progression Podcast to talk about the band's 5th album, Eulogies, and we dove deep into the album's meaning with faith in the Gospel and pandemic reflections. Now in 2025, there is a new album coming our way from Wolves At The Gate.But for a band releasing their 6th album some questions come to mind. What is the album going to be about? What is going to make this album different from what came before it? And is the sound going to evolve from the last album to this one?That is what we ask Steven today before the release of the band's 6th album, Wasteland, and May 30th. Join us as we talk about:- The inspiration of the new album, Wasteland, and the immersive experience to break free from short term, instant gratification in the world today.- How Steven reverse engineers other songs he likes in order to discover why he enjoys them, in order to become a better songwriter.- The difficulty artists face making fresh music as their careers go on years
