Liam Finn shares original version of ‘The Howl’, a twilight anthem from the Hyperverse sessions

Liam Finn unveils the original recording of ‘The Howl’, a brooding and kinetic track first created during his livestreamed Hyperverse project. Known for defying convention at every turn, Finn delivers a song that surges with emotion and hypnotic momentum.

“The Howl is like speeding down the road through a perpetual blue dusk,” Finn says. “It’s about the Groundhog Day-like cycles we repeat in relationships, hoping for a different outcome. Isn’t that the definition of madness?”

While a reimagined version of the track appeared on Crowded House’s 2024 album ‘Gravity Stairs’, this release preserves the raw intensity and immediacy of its origin—written and recorded live on Twitch, capturing a moment of unfiltered creativity.

It’s a powerful glimpse into Finn’s boundary-pushing artistry, and a haunting reminder of the emotional loops we often find ourselves stuck within.
