"If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start." - Charles Bukowski. "The Brooklyn-based rock group, MY UNCLE THE WOLF, started as an idea over a pack of cigarettes shared between friends.

Frustrated with the mechanics of the seemingly dead local scene, the approach of founding members Zac Hutton (vocals) and George Vas (guitars) proved to be unique from M.U.T.W.'s inception in January 2005.

Hutton and Vas exercised great patience by avoiding the search for new members, rehearsal spaces and the rush to write and perform songs live in hopes of building a group based on several ideas; the most important of which was anything goes.

In late May 2007, M.U.T.W. flew to New Orleans to record with Bower acting as producer and bassist, as well as David "The Puma" Troia turning the knobs as engineer/producer.

The end product, the self-titled My Uncle The Wolf, was recorded and mixed in 11 days. Those 11 days flowed just as the band's existence had over the previous two years.

There were great times, tense times, tranquil times and freak out times. Everyone involved was well aware that these dynamics, the combinations of light and shade as well as quiet and loud were what drove the band to make the type of album they did.

If there is one thing that can be said about MY UNCLE THE WOLF, it is that they are not one dimensional.

The dichotomy between good and bad has been the driving force behind history's greatest stories.

In their quest to grow as a band of classic status by focusing on this aesthetic: the album, the band, and their ideology can all be categorized as MY UNCLE THE WOLF."
