halibat

halibat is the name of a rock band in Chicago which was formed in 2008 and is currently actively recording under their own label: Bunker Mentality The band features John Miya on bass; Markus Greiner, a well-known graphics designer, plays drums and Paul Santori, a local artist, writes the lyrics, provides the vocals and plays the guitar.

halibat's sound has been described as pop music, post punk with a definite emo-noise element. All the lyrics in the songs deal more or less with pain and loss, in a more less literal but often in stream-of-conscience word associations filled with violent, visceral energy. Harsh would pretty much cover it over-all but not entirely.

Their music can be found on their MySpace page by searching under halibat. The also have a website which is under development.

The name has no meaning according to band members except that when searching for it on the computer the only instances of it occurring are when it is a misspelling of the word "halibut".
