The discography of Howling Bells, a London-based Australian indie rock band, consists of three studio albums, three extended plays, nine singles, and ten music videos. Formed in Sydney in 2004, the group consists of Glenn Moule (drums), Joel Stein (lead guitar), and Joel's sister Juanita Stein (vocals, rhythm guitar). Brendan Picchio (bass guitar) left the band in December 2011.

The band moved to London shortly after its formation and recorded its debut album with regular Coldplay producer, Ken Nelson. Following three singles, Howling Bells released their self-titled debut album Howling Bells (2006), to critical acclaim in the United Kingdom. It charted just inside the Top 100 in that country, and just outside of the Top 50 in Australia. Four singles that were released from the album charted outside of the Top 100 in the UK. The band's second album Radio Wars (2009), received mixed reviews and failed to produce a charting single in any country, though the album itself charted higher than its more popular predecessor in both the UK and Australia. Howling Bells' third album The Loudest Engine (2011), was released to mostly positive reviews.
