“See How It Goes” finds Goddamn Wolves leaning into their strengths while stretching the edges of their sound. From the first few bars, there’s a noticeable shift in mood compared to the band’s punchier work. Instead of hitting with force, this track simmers and builds, guided by a steady rhythm and subtle tension that mirrors the song’s theme of uncertainty and emotional give-and-take.
The interplay between vocals is especially compelling. Chris Weilding and Laura McCullough’s voices move in and out of harmony, sometimes contrasting, sometimes blending, offering a dynamic perspective that feels like a conversation in motion. It adds real emotional texture. Rather than taking center stage with overpowering theatrics, their delivery remains grounded, reflective, and full of nuance.
Instrumentally, the band leans into a more atmospheric approach. Drew Foglia’s drums keep things anchored while the guitars ripple underneath, alternating between restraint and grit. There’s a warmth in the arrangement that gives the song its emotional depth, even as it maintains the raw edge that has become the group’s signature. Recorded with longtime collaborator Max Gowan at Found After Dark Audio, the production feels crisp and intimate without being overly polished.
Instead of shouting its message, “See How It Goes” trusts the listener to feel it. That confidence is earned. After seven years together, Goddamn Wolves sound like a band completely comfortable in their own skin. This song doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, it sits in the in-between—between decisions, between certainty, between past and present. That honesty gives the track weight and makes it linger long after it ends.
