Come back to the world of the all-new, all-different Howling Hex, the planet of EARTH JUNK.
If
you figured on an electric country-pop hoedown for small ensemble
(featuring circus organ), as minimal and repetitive as all rock and
roll, you’d be getting somewhere. If you’re concerned it might create a
bit of curiosity or perplexity, you’re on the right track. The Howling
Hex are convinced that as musical entertainers, they owe the audience
(an audience? Any audience!) something of value for their money.
Emblematic identity and presentation doesn’t fall under their umbrella
of worthwhile experiences — and furthermore, what seems dire and
spacious can also be sly and hellacious. With The Howling Hex, you’re
free to get up or get down, and know there’s room for one more — and
another beyond it…
As test listeners, we concur. Recorded in
Austin in the late winter of early 2008, EARTH JUNK is a ramble in the
dappled sunlight of the American southwest, twisted metallic folk-art
in the ever-changing breeze, an offering to all nations.
