The Howling Hex Salute “Mexican Polka” on Their Latest, Earth Junk

The Howling Hex and song writer, author, producer Neil Michael Hagerty have returned from their late winter recording sessions in Austin with their latest record, Earth Junk. Junk, which is set to be released on September 23 on Chicago’s own Drag City Records, represents the ninth installment in the Hex’s discography. The record is said to embrace the American Southwest sound with traditional ranchero music played in waltz time that reminds some of poppy “Mexican polka.” Hagerty and Hex have also drawn some comparisons between Earth Junk and the band’s 2006 release, Nightclub Version of the Eternal. Earth Junk will be available everywhere September 23. For more regarding The Howling Hex please refer to the links below.
