The concept is a trip back in time, from the old school analogue production, to the big arena Rock sound. Monolith is a concept album, but it does not feel forced. Also, music from Hobosexual II was featured during two of the Seattle Seahawks’ nationally televised games in the 2013 Super Bowl season.Įnter 2017, a new Hobosexual album is here! Entitled Monolith and released November 3rd through Kitchentable Records, listening to this album, it is hard to believe so much sound is coming from just two guys, or as their Facebook refers to them: “2 beards, 4 amps, and more raw talent than Jesus.” Consisting of 8 tracks, there are a few soundbites on Monolith, but virtually every sound is produced by Hardwood or Silvia. Working hard to hone their skills as a band, even if the name Hobosexual is not terribly familiar, their songs very well may be. They were featured in the Marco Collins’ Documentary The Glamour & The Squalor directed by Marq Evans, which debuted at the 2015 Seattle International Film Festival. Two tracks from their first album, “Boogieshuttle” and “Concrete Corporate,” were featured on Showtime’s Shameless. Originally coming together back in 2009, in 2017, Hobosexual consists of Ben Harwood (guitars, vocals) and Jeff Silva (drums). So there is that, but there is also the two piece band out of Seattle, Washington taking on the title. According to the Urban Dictionary, the term means someone who cares little about their appearance. Hobosexual, the name alone is enough to strike anyone’s curiosity.
