Meet Bad Wolves’ new vocalist, Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz, formerly of The Acacia Strain

The band that rose to fame from their rock-fueled cover of The Cranberries’ “Zombie” has a new lead vocalist. Bad Wolves today (June 2) announced that their new frontman is singer-songwriter Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz, who will take the place former lead singer Tommy Vext, who left the group earlier this year.

DL is known for founding and performing lead guitar with metal-core band The Acacia Strain, where he was a band member from 2001 to 2013. He’s also been involved with All That Remains, Legion, For the Fallen Dreams and worked with Bad Wolves on their 2019 studio album, “N.A.T.I.O.N.”

Bad Wolves took to social media to announce the news today, stating they’re “excited to officially announce” their new vocalist.

“DL is a tremendous songwriter and singer, and we can confidently say that the album we are working on, titled ‘Dear Monsters,’ is the best Bad Wolves album to date,” they added. “DL is one of the most talented and hard-working people we have ever had the pleasure to know. He is a team player, a creative force, and overall a great human being who fits perfectly with our BW family.”

The band also stated that Bad Wolves are currently “surrounded with such positive energy” and that the music they’ve made is indicative of “this new-found optimism and collaborative spirit.”

“This new album shows a more cohesive and unique reflection of the band,” they said. “There is a lot to prove and expectations are high with a new singer coming in. And we nailed it. The songs speak for themselves, and if you’re a Bad Wolves fan we know you won’t be disappointed.”

The message wraps up thanking fans for “believing in Bad Wolves” and asking fans to “please join us in welcoming DL to the family. We can’t wait for you to hear what’s coming.”

Bad Wolves will release their latest album later this year on Better Noise Music.
