The Native Howl, purveyor of its own genre-blurring “thrash grass” sound and the season one winner of the TV series “No Cover,” has dropped the new song “Can’t Sleep” (via Sumerian Records). Stream the song here, and watch the visualizer below.
“Like much of The Native Howl’s catalog, ‘Can’t Sleep’ was inspired by cinema while touring,” the band said. “The film ‘The Matrix’ had a large role in the song’s rowdy instrumental and vocal delivery, while the over-exerting lifestyle of being in a touring band did the rest. The lyrical themes of struggle, loss, and desperation came from personal experience.”
Previously, the band released the song “Sons of Destruction,” its first after signing with Sumerian Records.
The Native Howl will hit the road starting in December 2023 in support of Zakk Sabbath, the Black Sabbath tribute band led by Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society, Ozzy Osbourne). Find ticket information here.
The Native Howl is a genre-defying quartet hailing from Leonard, Michigan. Its fast-tempo music that it has coined as “thrash grass” combines the aggression and intensity of thrash metal with the precision and melodicism of bluegrass. The band was born from a musical experiment that defied all expectations by blending elements of folk, bluegrass, rock and metal. Its lyrics often explore the dark sides of the human condition, nature and the trials of life.
