Howling Giant

Howling Giant is a heavy psych and stoner metal band based in Nashville, Tennessee, known for their cosmic themes, intricate songwriting, and a vintage-meets-modern sound that blends progressive rock, doom metal, and spacey psychedelia. Formed in the mid-2010s, the band features Tom Polzine on guitar and vocals, Roger Marks on bass and vocals, and Zach Wheeler on drums and vocals. Their music often explores science fiction and fantasy narratives, bringing a cinematic flair to their thunderous riffs and soaring melodies.

Since their debut, Howling Giant has built a solid following through both studio releases and relentless touring. Albums like The Space Between Worlds and Glass Future showcase their skill for crafting concept-driven music that’s both imaginative and hard-hitting. They’ve also participated in splits and collaborations, such as Turned To Stone Chapter 2 with Sergeant Thunderhoof, further cementing their status in the underground heavy-music scene. With their blend of technical musicianship and heady themes, Howling Giant continues to be a standout act for fans of modern psych-metal.
