There was a time when the award winning band Wonderlove was a celebrated act in Southern California, seemingly poised to break out. But instead, their lives leapt forward to 2020, a year that brought them closer together than ever before – musically at least, since they were spread out over three states. The upcoming album “All of the Nightmares” from Wonderlove is the opening of a capsule from an alternate timeline and seeing what time in isolation has created.

Out of the confusion of 2020, technology brought the 5 members of Wonderlove back together to start work on what would become “All of the Nightmares”. The idea came from Dave who simply said during a video meeting, “We should record a couple of songs.” Using friends’ studios in Southern California to record drums and personal bedroom studios to record the rest, ten songs had taken shape by early 2021.

The new album picks up where the band left off as if no time had passed with riff-rock barn burners Funnily enough, the new album also combines some of the circumstances from the first album: the band never played these songs before recording. However, without the burden of the studio clock ticking away, they could perfect their intense arrangements into something with far more depth than what was previously possible.

In this way, the lead single and video, “When the Vultures Die” is the perfect introduction to an explosive and complex new album. The single showcases Overall’s soaring vocals over a thunderous drum and guitar groove. It is accented by a distorted keyboard overture and classical guitar chorus and reaches a bass and drum climax before the final chorus. These dynamic shifts foreshadow the sonic roller coaster themed throughout the album.
