The Howlin' Roosters

The Howlin’ Roosters hail from Southern California and blend punk rock ‘n’ roll with rockabilly, paying homage to a variety of past influences while still attempting to create a sound that is original and authentic. The members of The Howlin’ Roosters have played in a variety of musical ensembles and styles, including folk and country, Straight Edge hardcore, punk rock, rock ‘n’ roll, pop punk, doom metal, surf reggae, etc. This variety of past musical experiences indefinitely has shaped how The Howlin’ Roosters write, play, and perform their original tunes. The easiest way to try to conceptualize The Roosters’ sound is to think of Johnny Cash and Tom Petty sitting at a hobo camp bonfire, eating beans out of a can, while getting together with GG Allin, and Mike Ness, and Hank Williams, and Bruce Springsteen, and Iggy Pop, and Travis Barker, and John Bonham, and Townes Van Zant, and Joshua Homme, and Elvis Presley, writing some songs on an acoustic guitar and a stand up bass. Incorporate a bit of distortion, the crack of a snare drum, and boom! you have it! The Howlin’ Roosters.

Rattlesnake Eyes
Words by Dylan Sam Jones 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu7PwjNWVio

I said, "Goddamn, whose that man that's looking at me?"
His rattlesnake eyes are locked on the prize for what feels like far too long.
And he's mumbling words, and he's saying prayers, 
and he's rubbing his fingers through his pomade hair,
and I know that man in the mirror, but he doesn't know me. 
I said I know that man in the mirror, but he doesn't know me. 

Baby, you don't know yourself, and you probably never will. 
You keep yourself in chains, you keep playing games, and run in circles all the same. 
And your rattlesnake eyes never go away! 
Goddamn. 

I said, "My friend, you're the man that's keeping you down."
Excuse after excuse has got you wearin' that same old frown. 
And you were born to lose, you've been singin' the blues, 
I heard this song before. 
You're a broken record, no harmony, spinning on repeat. 

You're a broken record, no harmony, spinning on repeat. 

Baby, you don't know yourself, and you probably never will. 
You keep yourself in chains, you keep playing games, and run in circles all the same. 
And your rattlesnake eyes never go away! 
Goddamn.
