Honey Claws FREE MP3 + tour dates

Honey Claws

Four Texan dudes called Honey Claws have come into the fiesta and they’re bringin’ the future with them. A mostly electronic, mostly funky, 14-track hip-hop epic, Honey Claws’ self-titled debut album is a pulsing, cursing, spitting, raving, fun-loving, literate, club-killing record bound to please the masses.

Multi-instrumentalists Dr. Zero, Ben Senior, Jon Von Letscher, and Traey Hatch went down in the lab with a pen and a pad (in Austin and Houston, respectively) and came out six months later with something very special. Absent in their debut is any sense of confirmed or confined genre, but at the same time it’s a fully realized sound, part mad scientist hip-hop experiment, part soulful psychedelic wall of sound.

Available digitally now, Honey Claws’ self-titled debut is, at its very heart, an electronic animal. When its heart beats, you feel the floor shaking from sixty-six blocks away. Sexed-up beats pulse thick with electro bass while a whole pile of robotic trippiness blankets the sound in a way that recalls like minded souls Daft Punk, Odelay-era Beck, and Kraftwerk. Still, the sound is all their own. Without Honey Claws there would be no Honey Claws music. Without Honey Claws music there would be no Honey Claws. They are a unique and new creature unto themselves.

If you’re lucky enough to be in New Zealand or Australia, don’t miss your chance to see Honey Claws live!!
