Haunted Horses is an industrial-punk trio hailing from Seattle, WA. The band has a reputation for a relentless and chaotic sound that pushes the boundaries of post-punk and noise rock. Formed by Colin Dawson and Myke Pelly, the band’s sonic intensity was further amplified with the addition of bassist Brian McClelland in 2022. Their music is characterized by its dissonant, heavy textures and ominous vocals, drawing comparisons to influential acts like Swans, Bauhaus, and Killing Joke. Their debut album, Watcher, showcased their ability to craft a visceral, noise-driven experience, earning them accolades from critics such as Anthony Fantano of The Needle Drop. Building on this momentum, their follow-up, Dead Meat, and their 2022 release, The Worst Has Finally Happened, continued to explore dark and experimental themes, solidifying their reputation in the industrial rock scene. These albums were noted for their complex soundscapes and thematic depth.

With DWELLER, set to expand their exploration of existential dread and transformation, Haunted Horses is poised to further evolve their sound. The album is a spiritual successor to their previous work, delving into intense, unsettling themes with renewed vigor: the fear and anxiety tied to the obliteration of one's self or identity, and the unknown outcome of this dissolution. The concepts came through a series of meditations, some of which didn’t make sense until the process was complete. Known for their captivating live performances and extensive touring history, Haunted Horses continues to captivate audiences and challenge the conventions of their genre with this release.
