The Loudest Engine

2011 release, the third album from the Australian-born/England based Indie quartet produced by The Killers' Mark Stoermer. The recording of The Loudest Engine saw Howling Bells forge a sonic union with Nevada's expansive surroundings and Las Vegas' street-soiled vibe. Howling Bells' desert sessions were the final part of a year-long writing adventure that saw the band wander through strange American outposts and seedy European back streets in their downtime during tours. Their travels provided endless lyrical inspiration; much of The Loudest Engine was written on the road.
