Hallan

Hallan brings strong rock elements into their generally muscular post-punk. They have choppy guitars with some angularity and a repetitious flow on the one hand, powerful and fuzzy riffs and punchy beats on the other. They play fairly strong grooves with plenty of volume and aggressiveness. Their post-punk influences color how they structure their melodies and the way they incorporate synth into their action perhaps a bit more than their overall sound. Vocalist Conor Clements slides into a a slight speak-sing mode with some frequency. Their 2026 EP Agapao finds the band leaning more heavily into a pop crossover territory with dramatic results.
