At home in both denim and leather, punishing Philly-based hard rock trio
Hound have a knack for pairing greasy stoner rock with NWOBHM-inspired proto-metal.
Hound's bluesy swagger, relentless riffage, and raw power invoke
Groundhogs,
Motörhead, and
Black Sabbath. Founded in 2013 by frontman, guitarist, and visual artist Perry Shall, the band has utilized a rotating cast of players over the years, including bass players
Mike Klein and Pat Hickey and drummers Chris Wilson (
Ted Leo & the Pharmacists) and Brendan Graham.
Hound issued their debut long-player,
Out of Time, in 2014, followed closely by their sophomore effort, Out of Space, in 2015.
Born Under 76, the band's third studio long-player, arrived in 2017. ~ James Christopher Monger
