It gets under my skin that The Family Crest have nowhere as many views as deserved. Very powerful group that needed to be shown to the world! A friend and I were exchanging songs and she recommended "Howl" and know I am here. Also, if anyone is reading this please do yourself a favour and watch The Family Crest perform Howl at the Riverview Bungalo in Austin, Texas! Beautiful group, just beautiful!
Lyrics: Build yourself an empty home Mold it out of soot and stone Hide your little love away Keep it from the light of day 'Cause all the things that he can do Love, here he cannot hurt you no more But when you go I hope you know That the world's just not the same Move away into the night Pull the curtains up so tight Hold yourself off from the sun Hide away from everyone 'Cause all the things that he can do Well, here he cannot hurt you Sometimes you break the mold Sometimes your heart is cold Set away with your demons Here dear, you must stay clear of his heart 'Cause he threw it like a stone Through your windows But I really hope you know That we hope that you'll come back around And I hope you know That when you let go Oh, the world will heal Will heal another one And I hope you know That when you let go Oh, the world will heal Will heal another one Oh, and I hope you know That when you let go Oh, the world will heal Will heal another one
I can not get enough of this band! They just make me feel the passion of their music! I Transport mentally from the harsh landscapes of this hard land of dust storms and Hellish heat-to the coast of Northern California and other Green place that I would rather be! Music has power to get someone out of their malaise if even for a moment. I am as stuck in this Arizona desert as my guitar is stuck in the Pawn Shop (where it will stay forever more), but music like this takes me away for a few. I feel more alive when I return from the short few moments in the wonderland that this song and others by the Family Crest takes me to! Thanks for the adventure!
I’d love to be in a band like this 😍 just pure music, made by people who adore what they do, with real instruments and great lyrics. The world needs more bands like these
I've had this song stuck in my head for months and never knew where it came from. I recently rediscovered The Family Crest's music and decided to obsessively listen to the entire discography. I finally found it.
Nunca había comentado pero hagan más música chicos son muy buenos 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 llevo más de 8 años de fan de ustedes . Son grandes quiero decirles que su música significó mucho para mí . Me salvó y me consoló en días hermosos y duros también . Gracias Family Crest
I saw you guys open for jukebox the ghost two nights ago in NYC and you guys were absolutely amazing. The minute my boyfriend and I realized all the instruments appear on the stage we knew we were in for a treat. Absolutely blown away. Hope to see you guys live again soon :)))
SO AMAZING! Watching this vid and hearing this song for the first time just now actually brought tears to my eyes...great joy in the morning...you guys are simply exquisite!
AMAZING. I literally was seconds into the movie Sugar Mountain and I HAD to find out what the first song was.. and I found you guys! What awesome, uplifting, beautiful music! I'm def a new fan! Keep up the great work!!
Love, love, love this! Great energy, melody, harmonies, lyrics and video. I stumbled upon you all just tonight after following a friend's link to the band Jared and the Mill. (They're also good, but you guys are way better!) Then watched a few of your videos including the '14 Tiny Desk concert. Now subscribing and looking forward to one day seeing you play live!
Any chance y'all will play in Santa Cruz or the Bay Area anytime soon? I'd love to watch you all live and give my support. You're music is outstanding, unique and truly touching!
This is a pretty cool song - I really like it! I'm wondering if anyone else hears the striking resemblance in the "ah-ah-ah" vocals at the beginning to those found in "Flying" on the Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour" album. Was that an intentional homage? The music video is even shot with the band playing setup outside, similarly to how the Beatles were set up for many of the promotional images for MMT. (for reference www.thirteen.org/13pressroom/files/2012/10/BeatlesMMT_Press02.jpg) Also, the choral melody at the end is eerily reminiscent of that from "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)" where the chorus sings a similar chord progression heard here, repeating "war is over... war is over...." Just wondering if that was intentional at all.
I hate to be "that kinda guy.." But if you are in the mood for more new music. My band just released our debut EP today and we are giving the entire thing away FREE! noisetrade.com/debtorsyetheirs/gibraltar I just found The Family Crest last week, but I thought there might be some fans here who appreciate what we do! (We almost recorded a flute on our stuff.. but we ran out of time!)

Lyrics:
Build yourself an empty home
Mold it out of soot and stone
Hide your little love away
Keep it from the light of day
'Cause all the things that he can do
Love, here he cannot hurt you no more
But when you go
I hope you know
That the world's just not the same
Move away into the night
Pull the curtains up so tight
Hold yourself off from the sun
Hide away from everyone
'Cause all the things that he can do
Well, here he cannot hurt you
Sometimes you break the mold
Sometimes your heart is cold
Set away with your demons
Here dear, you must stay clear of his heart
'Cause he threw it like a stone
Through your windows
But I really hope you know
That we hope that you'll come back around
And I hope you know
That when you let go
Oh, the world will heal
Will heal another one
And I hope you know
That when you let go
Oh, the world will heal
Will heal another one
Oh, and I hope you know
That when you let go
Oh, the world will heal
Will heal another one
You just feel the joy in all these songs

Deserve a billion hits
I am a hard rock/ metal music listener mostly, but I am completely in love with your songs. Especially how to transcend in between.
Big thumbs up
