From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Howling Bells

Howling Bells are an indie rock band that formed in Sydney in 2004. The band obtained moderate popularity in the United Kingdom following the release of its 2006 self-titled debut album. The lineup consists of Juanita Stein (vocals, rhythm guitar), Glenn Moule (drums), and Juanita's brother Joel Stein (lead guitar).

Originally called Waikiki, the band changed its name and musical style preceding its move from Australia to England. Howling Bells' debut album, Howling Bells, was produced by Ken Nelson. The album charted in the Top 100 in the UK and just outside the Top 50 in Australia, and it was included on Album of the Year lists for a number of publications. The band's next release, Radio Wars (2009), received mixed reviews, although it charted higher than its predecessor in both the UK and Australia. The band supported Coldplay on the third leg of the North American Viva la Vida Tour. In 2009, Gigwise named Juanita Stein "the sexiest woman in rock."

Howling Bells are notable for a doom-and-gloom, country-and-rock music style, and they have been labelled as melodic blues and country-goth. They are influenced by The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix, and they are often compared to Mazzy Star and The Velvet Underground. Their third album, The Loudest Engine, was released in September 2011.

History

Formation

In 1999, Glenn Moule, Joel Stein, and Juanita Stein formed the pop rock group Waikiki.[1][2] They toured the Australian eastern states as a trio and released an EP, Presents, in 2000.[1][3] In 2002, with a rhythm guitarist, they issued the Top 50 album I'm Already Home.[4][5] With four members, the band then toured Australia and New Zealand.[4][6] Shortly thereafter, Brendan Picchio joined Waikiki as a bassist, and Juanita switched to rhythm guitar.[3][7] The group soon became dissatisfied with its material, so the members chose a new direction for their music.[8][9] They wrote a number of new songs and made a wish list of producers with whom they would like to work.[10][11] In 2004, the band changed its name to Howling Bells, as its members felt that phrase better embodied its newly adapted indie rock style.[9][12]

I realised onstage one night that I wasn't into it. I didn't believe in what I was doing. I thought, how will [the audience] feel it if I can't?
—Juanita Stein's thoughts on Waikiki[13]

Demos of the new material were sent to British producer Ken Nelson (Coldplay, Gomez).[10][14] The band members considered him to be an unattainable candidate as a producer, but he responded favourably.[10] Upon learning that he was interested in working with them, they moved to London.[3][15] At the time, Nelson was occupied working with Coldplay. For eight to ten months, the band lived in adverse conditions in one room in a house in London.[16][17] During this period, the members took up menial employment opportunities. Picchio sold double-glazing over the telephone.[18] Moule worked in a pub and in a car workshop, and Joel worked on a farm.[16][19]

Howling Bells (2005-2008)

Main article: Howling Bells (album)

Howling Bells waited for almost a year while Nelson worked on Coldplay's X&Y album.[20] Frustrated by the unforeseen delay, they considered returning to Australia.[8][17] However, in early 2005, Nelson became available, and they recorded their first album at Parr Street Studios, Liverpool.[21] Howling Bells exhibited a brooding sound, and it was a departure from the poppier style of music demonstrated by Waikiki.[10][22] The long delay and the experience of a cold British winter had affected the tone of their music.[20][23]

By July 2005, the band was not yet signed to a record label.[24] Howling Bells toured for ten months prior to the release of the album. They played sporadically in clubs in Australia and North America, and they toured Europe and the UK with Editors.[25][26][27] The group played extensive UK club shows with many artists, including The Young Knives and Hank & Lily.[28][29] Howling Bells also played Camden Crawl and the 2006 NME New Music Tour.[10][30]

The album was released in May 2006 in the United Kingdom on the Bella Union label and in Australia in July through Liberation.[31][32] It received critical acclaim, including a perfect 5/5 from musicOMH.[33] NME rated it 9/10 and wrote in a review, "By turns beguiling and enthralling, this is an extraordinary album."[34] Howling Bells peaked in the Top 100 of the UK Albums Chart and just outside the Top 50 of the Australian Albums Chart.[35][36] At the time, it was the fastest selling album on the Bella Union label.[10][37] The release appeared on Album of the Year lists for a number of different publications.[38][39] In its 22 March 2007 issue, Rolling Stone named Howling Bells one of their three bands to watch out for that year.[40]

Howling Bells spent much of the next two years touring the UK, Europe, Australia, and the US. They played at the 2007 NME Awards Show.[41] They performed at numerous festivals during the northern hemisphere's summer months in 2006 and 2007, including Reading and Leeds and Latitude.[10][42] They supported Placebo in Europe and Australia and The Futureheads in the UK.[43] The band also supported Mercury Rev, Snow Patrol, and The Killers across three different continents.[27][43]

Radio Wars (2008-2009)

Main article: Radio Wars (album)
This album is talking less about innate feelings and more about the impact between myself or ourselves and the world around us.
—Juanita Stein, Repeat[44]

Howling Bells parted ways with Bella Union and, in 2008, signed a deal with record label Independiente.[45][46] The band worked with producer and mixer Dan Grech-Marguerat (Radiohead, Paul McCartney) and recorded its follow-up album, Radio Wars, at several different recording studios.[47][48] At times, the members found it difficult to work with their new producer. However, they have stated that in retrospect, they learned a great deal from him and felt fortunate for having the experience of collaborating with him.[47]

Radio Wars was first released in the UK in March 2009, and it appeared in several other countries shortly thereafter.[2][49] The album signalled a change in direction. The band's music had become brighter and more accessible and placed a greater emphasis on keyboards.[23][47] Consequently, reviews were mixed. BBC Music claimed "the second chance may well have been squandered."[50] Gigwise called it "an album of mashed-up half ideas."[51] In a positive review, ABC described it as "anthemic, edgy, stomping indie rock at its best."[52] It peaked in the Top 30 in Australia and just outside of the Top 50 in the UK.[53][54]

Howling Bells headlined a tour of the UK in March 2009, supported by The Joy Formidable and Chew Lips.[27] They played V Festival in Australia in April and were then invited to support Coldplay in May and June in North America.[27][55] The band played more festivals in Europe, including Hop Farm, Hard Rock Calling, and Pukkelpop.[27][56] They supported Coldplay again for three nights of their European leg in August and September.[27] The group returned to Australia to write music for its third album and to tour in December.[11][57] Howling Bells received much praise from bands they supported on tour. Coldplay's Chris Martin advised his audiences to download Howling Bells' song "Nightingale."[58] In July, Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody named the group as his "Band of the Week" in Q magazine.[59]

Juanita made the decision to develop her on-stage persona in 2008 and 2009. She became more confident, animated, and outgoing in her interactions with the audience and in her choice of clothes and hairstyles.[47] In March 2009, Gigwise proclaimed her "the sexiest woman in rock."[60] She also placed among the top ten of Clash magazine's "Top Woman of 2009" list.[61]

The Loudest Engine (2010-2012)

Main article: The Loudest Engine

Howling Bells began writing material for The Loudest Engine in mid2009, and expressed hope that 2010 would see the release of the album, but it did not.[57][62] Juanita labelled the band's new writing as "real organic, real jammy ... very melodic, but very raw."[22][57] They played new material during their December 2009 Australian tour. One critic described it as "a more rollicking, rock and roll approach."[63] In 2010, the band severed its partnership with Independiente and later negotiated a contract agreement with Cooking Vinyl.[64]

In September 2010, Howling Bells started recording The Loudest Engine at the Killers-owned Battle Born Studios in Las Vegas.[64] It was produced by bassist Mark Stoermer, whom the group had met while it toured with The Killers.[65] The relationship between Stoermer and Howling Bells strengthened after the band disembarked from its flight to Las Vegas. The flight had been delayed by more than 12 hours, but he had nonetheless waited for them at the airport. Howling Bells were impressed by his style of work. Rather than overproducing, he kept the amount of takes to a minimum and allowed the band just to play, which kept the sessions very natural.[65][66] The band members became less conscious of trying to please other people, made the record that they wanted, and hoped that it would change people's attitudes toward the band.[64]

The Loudest Engine was first issued in Australia in September 2011.[67] The album received mostly favourable reviews from music critics, but it did receive its share of negative response as well. Mojo magazine rated The Loudest Engine 8/10 and praised it as the band's finest album to date.[68] On the opposite end of the spectrum, NME rated it 2/10 and claimed that it "[fell] flat in a puddle of MOR."[69] The album charted in both the UK and Australia.[70][71] To coincide with the release of the album, Howling Bells played a short six-date tour of the UK. In November, they supported Elbow in Europe, and later that month they returned to Australia, where they headlined shows in December.[27] In December bass player Brendan Picchio left the band.

In 2011 Juanita Stein contributed vocals to Coldplay's fifth album Mylo Xyloto on the track Up With The Birds and guitarist Joel Stein helped co-produce Mark Stoermer's (bass player The Killers) debut solo album Another Life.

Influences and musical style

Members of Howling Bells have cited The Beatles, Charles Mingus, Peter Green, Vinnie Colaiuta, and Jimi Hendrix as influences.[4][72] The catalyst for the change from Waikiki to Howling Bells was Juanita and Joel's trip to see Black Rebel Motorcycle Club in Australia. They saw this band shrouded in red lights, and it created an atmosphere that inspired them to alter their musical direction.[10][73] The band's style has been compared to that of PJ Harvey, The Velvet Underground, Nick Cave, Mazzy Star, and The Duke Spirit.[10][74] Their music has been called folk rock, melodic blues, and country-goth.[16][75] Juanita disagrees with the group's gothic characterization.

For [critics] to romanticize this sense of darkness ... Its just the music we like.
—Juanita Stein referring to being labelled as "Goth"[76]

The style of Howling Bells was greatly influenced by film.[77][78] The Steins and Picchio have expressed admiration of French films in particular.[79][80] Juanita has stated that she enjoyed bringing the strange and ethereal energy from those films into their music.[81] To describe the sound of Howling Bells' debut album, critics used terms like dark, brooding, and Americana.[82] NME described it as "the sound of PJ Harvey hitching a ride with The Velvet Underground through Twin Peaks."[32]

The second album, Radio Wars, in which the band experimented with synthesizers and drum machines, had a more electronic pop sound.[44][83] They also incorporated arrangements of string and brass into the album.[84] Their goals were to make a different kind of record by exploring other genres of music and to create something more insightful and futuristic.[16][45] Not unlike the first record, Radio Wars contained elements of dark subject matter. "Cities Burning Down," the darkest track from the album, was a song that Juanita and Moule wrote together.[85] Its lyrics were inspired by the apocalyptic sound of the music, which they created first.[45]

The Loudest Engine features a sound adapted to the genres of folk and rock, more so than the previous two Howling Bells records.[86] Juanita explained that the band relied less on the sound technology that was prominent in Radio Wars, instead returning to the more organic state of Howling Bells.[22] For the new album, Joel was inspired by prog rock and krautrock acts such as Amon Düül and Aphrodite's Child.[87] Howling Bells were inspired by The Doors documentary When You're Strange, which the members watched just before beginning to record The Loudest Engine.[66]
