Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 3rd album, Howl, originally released in 2005. The opus is to be reissued as a deluxe box set, a 2x vinyl LP set, and a single CD, on January 30th 2026 via the PIAS label. Keep reading below to find out more.

Howl was an unexpected curveball from the band’s previous releases. Gone was the guitar-driven, reverb-and-white noise that characterised their sound and saw them embracing folk, blues and gospel-inspired songs, receiving positive reviews from the world’s press.
