HOWL Posts New Lyric Video; Band Prepares For SXSW Takeover

Today the maniacal riff wranglers of HOWL are pleased to discharge the new lyric video for �Attrition,� from their upcoming new offering of audio wreckage entitled Bloodlines. Recorded at the infamous Planet Z Studio in Hadley, Massachusetts with Chris �Zeuss� Harris (Soulfly, Crowbar, Municipal Waste, 3 Inches Of Blood et al), Bloodlines is a 40-minute torrent of sonic animosity recommended for fans of Mastodon, Lamb Of God, Kingdom Of Sorrow, Baroness, Kylesa and the like.

�Slaughter your will; this is no room for thinking! Go on into the almighty void, surrender your being.� And while you�re at it, check out �Attrition� at http://www.earsplitcompound.com/site/2013/03/07/howl-posts-new-lyric-video-band-prepares-for-sxsw-takeover/" rel="nofollow - THIS LOCATION .

Commended for their distinct brand of �furious, bone-crushing, head-splitting doom� by MetalSucks, and their �huge riffs, excellent tone and an attitude not usually seen in bands with this much groove� by Crustcake, HOWL unleashed their Full Of Hell debut to unsuspecting ears in 2010. Gushed About.com in a near perfect rating of the record: �Full Of Hell isn�t just one of the best metal debuts of the year. It�s likely to be one of the best metal albums of the year.�
