Holy Bones + Howlin' Jaws

Howlin' Jaws

Two years after Strange Effect, Parisian band Howlin' Jaws returns with Half Asleep Half Awake, a second album that will restore your faith in rock. And how do they do that? With a compendium of overpowering hits, luminous melodies and finger-burning demonic jams!

Howlin' Jaws is a trio made up of Djivan Abkarian (vocals, bass), Lucas Humbert (guitar) and Baptiste Leon (drums). Having been in a band since junior high, the boys are fans of fifties and sixties music and are now on the rock highway. The overall aesthetic of Half Asleep Half Awake is the perfect accompaniment to the themes evoked. The new songs allude to dreams, clairvoyance, incantations and the mystical. In the end, this second album already sounds like their Sgt. Pepper. An album where alchemy and experimentation give birth to frenzy, wildness and emotion. Listen half-asleep or awake, as you like.
