Howling is the eighth album by Australian hard rock band The Angels, released in 1986.[1][2] The album charted at number 6 on the ARIA Charts and it peaked at number 10 on the Recorded Music NZ.[3][4]

In 1988, the band's U.S. management, the Alan Niven led Stravinski Brothers, commissioned new mixes of 6 of the songs on Howling, "Standing Over You", "Don't Waste My Time", "Stonewall", "When the Time Comes", "Man There", and "Get Out of This Place", which were shopped to labels to procure a record deal in the USA. Although a deal could not be struck at the time, the songs were pressed up as a promotional CD titled Shelved.
