1) Rock band from the 80's. Back… Read Full Bio ↴There are three White Wolf bands;
1) Rock band from the 80's. Back in 1980, a band was formed in Edmonton Alberta called White Wolf. Many remember White Wolf as a talented, yet underrated Canadian Heavy Metal acts of the 1980’s. In 1984 they signed with RCA and their debut LP “Standing Alone” which went on to sell 250,000 copies worldwide.
The band enjoyed much success and toured North America and were featured on radio stations across the nation as well as Much Music in Canada and MTV in the United States.
In 1985 they flew to Holland to record their second album “Endangered Species” which was released in 1986. The album was sitting at #114 on the Billboard charts, heading to break 100 when their record label RCA was purchased by BMG.
Sensing a lack of support after the record company merger, the band went their separate ways in 1988.
With the rise in popularity of 80’s music this decade, White Wolf resurfaced in 2007 with former members Don Wilk and Cam Macleod reuniting to release their third album “Victim of the Spotlight”. Wilk has since changed his legal name to “Don Wolf” and he and Macleod have been touring Europe to promote their new album.
The band has recently re-issued a double digipack of their first two albums “Standing Alone” and “Endangered Species” and are selling their live in Germany performance on their MySpace
2) a former Dutch hiphop crew
3) Skinhead band
4) Blues Band
They were the former Bobby Bradford Blues Band which played in Nashville in the late '70's. It was so named because a fan once thought Bobby sounded like a white "Howling Wolf". -q
Shadows in the Night
White Wolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Watching you)
Voices calling you
(Look out)
It may be coming over you
Shadows
Shadows in the night
Run for your life
(Watch out)
Like a magnet
Pulls you closer
It finds you all the time
In the shadows
In that old sign
It's watching you
The eyes of a cat
Shining in the night
Never let you through
Shadows in the night
Fighting madly
To break free of hands
That seem to grab you
No escaping now
(That's right)
The night has got a hold of you
In the shadows
In that old sign
It's watching you
The eyes of a cat
Crying in the night
Never let you through
Voices calling
And you're backing out of fright
Mist in the air
There's a full moon out tonight
Cold wind howling
Hits right to the bone
You can't escape
Erie myth goes on and on and on
(Solo)
In the shadows
In that old sign
It's watching you
The eyes of a cat
Shining in the night
Never let you through
Shadows in the night
It's watching you
(The eyes of a cat)
Shining in the night
Never let you through
Shadows in the night
Are watching you
(The eyes of a cat)
Shining in the night
Never let you through
(The eyes of a cat)
Shadows in the night
(The eyes of a cat)
Shadow in the night
(The eyes of a cat)

Line by Line Meaning
There's something in the air tonight
A vague sensation of unease has settled in the atmosphere around us
Voices calling you
You hear strange whispers in the night, beckoning you to come closer
It may be coming over you
Whatever force is out there, it seems to be drawing you in
Shadows
Darkness envelops everything around you
Shadows in the night
The darkness is particularly intense under cover of night
Screaming with the silence of the night
There's an overwhelming sense of foreboding and danger, although everything seems still and quiet
Run for your life
You're in mortal danger and need to flee as fast as possible
Like a magnet
This unseen danger pulls you towards it irresistibly
Pulls you closer
It gets ever harder to resist the unseen force drawing you towards it
It finds you all the time
The danger is inescapable and omnipresent
In that old sign
There's a specific location where the danger seems to be emanating from
The eyes of a cat
The danger takes the shape of a feline gaze, unblinking and unyielding
Shining in the night
The eyes seem to glow with an inner light, even in the darkest surroundings
Never let you through
The eyes seem to be a barrier you cannot overcome or escape from
Fighting madly
Your instincts are telling you to struggle against the unseen danger with all your might
To break free of hands
You feel as if you're trapped in an invisible grip and need to escape
That seem to grab you
The grip feels almost physical, like an intangible hand trying to pull you in
No escaping now
It's too late to run, the danger has you in its grip
The night has got a hold of you
The darkness and its dangers have overcome you completely
Crying in the night
This time, the feline eyes seem to be shedding tears, but they're not ones of sadness
Voices calling
The whispers and strange sounds from before have now become full-fledged voices
And you're backing out of fright
You're so scared that you're trying to move away from the source of danger, no matter the cost
Mist in the air
The humidity is such that the surrounding air has become opaque and misty
There's a full moon out tonight
The moon is full and bright, casting an eerie glow on everything around it
Cold wind howling
The wind is so strong and cold that it sounds like an animal howling in the distance
Hits right to the bone
You feel the cold and discomfort of the wind deep in your bones
You can't escape
No matter how hard you try, the danger still looms over you
Erie myth goes on and on and on
This sense of unease and danger is continuous, and seems to have lasted forever
It's watching you
No matter where you look, the dangerous presence is always watching you
Are watching you
The eyes of the cat-shaped danger are always monitoring your every move
