Pipeman interviews Welsh metalcore band Bless Your Dead.

Rising from the ashes of When We Were Wolves, the band announce their arrival with the release of their debut single “Everyone’s A Target” — a no-holds-barred statement of intent from a band reborn heavier, sharper and more focused than ever.

They've just announced their debut show, performing at Noizzefest in Cardiff this April.

The track is due for release on 5th February and is the first single from a wave of new music lined up for 2026. Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before.

Formerly known as When We Were Wolves, the four-piece metalcore outfit have spent the past year tearing everything down and rebuilding from the ground up. The result is Bless Your Dead: a band delivering heavy riffs, crushing breakdowns and anthemic choruses, driven by a renewed sense of purpose and aggression. The band features vocalist Mitch Bock, guitarists Jay Coatsworth and Jack Adams, and drummer Kristian Eirsland “After taking a year away to write and record, it became apparent that the material we were working on was something completely different to what we’d done before — and that’s when Bless Your Dead was born,” explains vocalist Mitch Bock. “Everyone’s A Target” serves as the first taste of what’s to come. Though it was the final video shot from an upcoming run of three singles, the band felt it was the strongest introduction to their new sound. “Being a band that mixes heavy and melodic, we felt this track was the perfect place to start,” says Mitch. “It’s got riffs, a big chorus and a breakdown — everything that represents us right now. ”Lyrically, the track channels raw frustration and defiance. “It’s about reaching breaking point with forced loyalty and surface-level behavior, and finally snapping back.”

With a wave of new music lined up for 2026, Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before.
