ANTHEMIC NEW TRACK “VALLEY BOY” AVAILABLE TODAY
CANADIAN TOUR DATES SUPPORTING ARCADE FIRE THIS FALL
20 JULY 2017 (Toronto, ON) – Today, Wolf Parade announce the thunderous new album, Cry Cry Cry, the band’s first release in seven years, out October 6 2017 via Sub Pop / Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. Cry Cry Cry is the band’s fourth full-length album and is available for pre-order here. LP pre-orders also available through the band’s online store, which include limited edition crème colored vinyl.
The soaring choruses, rousing anthems, sprawling guitars and chaotic keys that make up Wolf Parade are proudly on display over the course of Cry Cry Cry. These elements are captured on the album's anthemic lead single “Valley Boy” available for stream/download here, which also has an animated visual available HERE.

Additional standouts “You’re Dreaming”, “Artificial Life” and “King of Piss and Paper”. Cry Cry Cry was produced by John Goodmanson at Robert Lang Studios in Seattle and mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound in New York.
Wolf Parade announced its return to the live stage in early 2016, after a five-year hiatus, scheduling multi-night residencies in New York, London, and Toronto to support of Apologies to the Queen Mary, the reissue of its classic, Sub Pop debut. Tickets sold out within a matter of hours. As the shows neared, Wolf Parade surprised fans again, with a self-titled-and-released EP’s-worth of new material. The excitement surrounding the band’s return led to marquee festival appearances and late-night TV performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Conan and Last Call with Carson Daly.
Wolf Parade’s previously announced North American tour dates for 2017 resumes later this summer, with select Canadian dates. In August, the band will also appear at Ponderosa Music & Arts Festival in Rock Creek, BC. Then from September 5th through September 28th, Wolf Parade will act as direct support for The Arcade Fire (select dates). There will be additional live dates announced soon and available on their website.
