Psych Rockers HOWLIN' JAWS Drop Video Single "Mirror Mirror" via New LP "Half Asleep Half Awake"




Paris-based psych-rock band Howlin' Jaws is set to captivate the anglosphere with their mesmerizing soundscapes and experimental vibe on the upcoming UK/US release of their latest LP, "Half Asleep Half Awake."

The video single for "Mirror Mirror" perfectly captures the essence of the album by embodying the more experimental '60s psych elements present throughout. With visually captivating aesthetics complementing its enchanting melodies, viewers will be drawn into an immersive experience that reflects Howlin' Jaws' musical trips.

Comprised of Djivan Abkarian on vocals and bass, Lucas Humbert on guitar, and Baptiste Leon on drums, this talented trio has created an album that serves as a consecration of their musical journey.

Recorded at Liam Watson's renowned Toe Rag Studios in London - known for producing acclaimed albums such as The White Stripes' "Elephant" - "Half Asleep Half Awake" showcases Howlin' Jaws pushing boundaries by infusing psychedelic phases and thunderous rhythmic signatures into each track. The band's evolution demonstrates a coming-of-age moment as they experiment with effects to flesh out their sound spectrum.


"We didn't anticipate the extent of our experimentation and the incorporation of various effects into our music two years ago," shares the band. "But now, it feels natural to utilize them in order to expand our sonic scope."
