***2015 get to the dance floor: THE HOWLING HEX got another new single ready! After last year’s extended 10", “Fool’s Watch” b/w “Lord Gloves,” opened up wild frontiers in their songs and sounds, this new record is located—naturally!—at the other end of the spectrum. On both sides of the 7", “Butterfly” and “Party Shoes” are compact pop songs with lyric hooks, vocal harmonies, guitar leads, crazy rhythms and themes of love and peace, mixed together into a beguilingly physical sound. The Howling Hex perform a rhythmically deliberate and passionate musical interpretation of the classic Norteño musical styles employing electronic rock instrumentation and bar band warmth. The vibrant cadences of the ranchera, waltz and huapango are voiced by The Howling Hex to create a totally new sound suitable for dancing by the mind and the body. (STREET DATE - 5/19/2015)
