Howl is a 2005 album by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. It is their third studio album and was released on August 22, 2005. The record was released in the UK and Europe by Echo and by RCA in the U.S. (distributed through RED Distribution), Australia, Japan and the rest of the world.
While still staying true to their origins this album demonstrates maturity as a band. Howl infuses blues, country, and gospel throughout, stemming from their love of Americana less apparent in their 2001 and 2003 releases.
An extended version of the song "Howl" (which runs 6:12, as opposed to the 4:20 length of the album version) appears on the soundtrack to the 2007 film Southland Tales.
Initial versions of the CD released in the U.S. are copy controlled.

Baby 81 is an album by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. It is their fourth studio album and was released on April 30, 2007 in Europe and on May 1, 2007 in the U.S.. The album features a harder, more raw sound compared with their previous record Howl. It was also a studio comeback for drummer Nick Jago who was unable to participate during the recordings of Howl (other than the last track recorded during the sessions, 'Promise'). A DualDisc edition of the album was set to be released on May 1 in the U.S.; however, it has since been canceled.
The album debuted at number 46 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling about 14,000 copies in its first week.[1]
The album title refers to Baby 81, a survivor of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake.
The track "Weapon Of Choice" is featured in the bonus setlist in Guitar Hero: World Tour and as downloadable content for Rock Band.
Specter At The Feast 豆瓣

回顾Black Rebel Motorcycle Club(以下简称BRMC)过往的所有录音室专辑,你会发现一个尴尬而又奇怪的现象:他们的专辑得到的评价始终褒贬不一,有人给出高分,就有人贬得一文不值。如今,面对他们的新作《Specter At The Feast》,这种情况依然存在。
但实际上,你能从这张作品中听出他们过往各个时期的特点——节奏平缓的开篇曲《Fire Walker》遥望了首张专辑《B.R.M.C.》;曲风激进的《Teenage Disease》和《Rival》是对《Take Them On, On Your Own》的回溯;《Howl》中的美式根源元素在此次的《Some Kind Of Ghost》、《Lullaby》等民谣作品中得以展现;《Hate The Taste》仅凭节奏就可以将人带回《Baby 81》时期;《Sell It》则是对上张专辑《Beat The Devil’s Tattoo》实验曲风的再扩大。
细心聆听你会发现,新专辑在整体节奏上更趋于平缓,慢歌所占的比重比前作更大,Robert Levon Been担任主唱的曲目也更多,这一切均源于Robert的父亲、同时也是乐队调音师Michael Been在2010年的离世。为了表达对其的敬意,乐队此次特意在专辑中翻唱了Michael原先乐队The Call的代表作《Let The Day Begin》,其意义不言自明。
此外,BRMC这次依然延续了每张专辑必有一首长篇曲目的传统,长达8分多钟的《Lose Yourself》以舒缓的节奏、伤感的气息为专辑收尾,Robert在其中唱道:“Close your eyes, and skip what you dream……Send your touch, but you can’t feel a thing.”这是献给其父的一曲挽歌,也是专辑中最让人动容的时刻。
