•    This release highlights the band's fluid lineup and its ability to continually redefine its sound through the contribution of diverse musical talents.

“The Wolf Changes Its Fur But Not Its Nature” revisits the echoes of their past, reworking and re-recording classics that have been sculpted by time and transformation. Joined by old friends and new allies, these reimagined anthems pulse with renewed vigor and raw emotion. From the extended odyssey of “Song For The Loved” to the resurrection of the lost-classic “Whissendine,” each track showcasing their exploration of the human condition and the perpetual struggle for justice and equality.

In "Horrific Honorifics Number Two(2)," CRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX once again lays bare the soul of the music that carved their path, paying homage to the titans who stoked their spirit. With searing renditions like "Vengeance" by New Model Army, an anthem of resistance and rebellion, and the haunting, introspective take on Laura Branigan's "Self Control," CRIPPLED BLACK PHOENIX challenges us to see these classics through a new, unflinching lens.
