Howling Rabbits

Brisbane’s own Howling Rabbits started the night on an unprecedented high note; as the crowd slowly trickled in, they were greeted by the band’s own strand of psychedelic stomp-rock. They played familiar tracks for those who had been acquainted with the band before and so received a warm reception, and a setlist that easily won over newcomers with quirky eclecticism interwoven into classic rock. Venturing into the darker depths of psych and coming back with a punch, these guys presented an overall refined sound with the soul and seduction of The Bad Seeds, infused with old-school contagiousness—their rhythms had the audience hooked before they even realised it. Stand out tracks included the eerily seductive Killerman as well as the shoulder-popping track Cut Me I Don’t Bleed providing evidence of the scope of this five-piece to keep your eye on. - Faster Louder

Howling Rabbits start this evening’s showcase of all things psychedelic with their own brand of incense-scented rock & roll. Throwing in Doors-y keyboard licks with a wealth of catchy garage riffs, the band’s heady mix of psych and hard rock provides an early highlight. - Rave Magazine
