Orchestra of Wolves is the debut album by Gallows, released by In at the Deep End Records on 25 September 2006. A limited edition was re-issued in the United Kingdom in June 2007 with a bonus disc featuring live session tracks, two new songs and two covers. It was also re-issued in North America by Epitaph Records on July 10th, 2007, with four bonus tracks ("Sick of Feeling Sick", "Black Heart Queen", "Nervous Breakdown", and "Staring at the Rude Bois" (hidden)).^[1]

Before the recording of this album began, guitarist Paulo left the band. As a result Laurent Barnard, the main songwriter of Gallows, recorded all the guitars himself.
