Clipd Beaks - Hoarse Lords

FORMED IN 2003 IN MINNEAPOLIS, CLIPD BEAKS ANTICIPATED FULL-LEGNTH HOARSE LORDS FOLLOWS NOT ONLY THEIR CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED PREYERS EP (TIGERBEAT6) BUT OVER 5 YEARS OF EXPERIMENTATION. BASSIST SCOTT ECKLEIN AND DRUMMER RAY BENJAMIN MET AT AGE SEVEN AND HAVE PLAYED MUSIC TOGETHER EVER SINCE. THE NASCENT BEAKS RHYTHM SECTION MET GUITARIST/SYNTHESIST GREG PRITCHARD AND THE THREE BOYS INVITED SINGER NIC BARBELN, WHOSE DELAYED VOCAL LOOPS AND JAM BAND TENDENCIES THEY SECRETLY ADMIRED FROM AFAR, TO JOIN THEM FOR AN IMPROMPTU JAM, AND ON A SUB-ZERO JANUARY NIGHT IN A LOFT ABOVE A METAL BAR IN MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, CLIPD BEAKS WAS BORN. THE CREATION OF HOARSE LORDS BEGAN IN THE SUMMER OF 2005 WHEN CLIPD BEAKS RELOCATED TO OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA. INFLUENCED BY HOBO CULTURE, THE DRUGGED-UP HYPHY SOUNDS CURRENTLY DOMINATING BAY AREA AIRWAVES, AND UNDERGROUND NEU SAN FRANCISCO&#xu201D; WAREHOUSE PARTIES WHERE TECHNO BANGERS FADE INTO TRIBAL NOISE JAMS, EVERYTHING ON HOARSE LORDS IS TURNED UP TO 11. HARSH AND DISTORTED, ITS A FITTING SOUND FOR A BAND THAT REFERENCES CLIPPING&#xu201D; IN THEIR NAME, AND FEEL EVERY BIT AS SICK AND VIOLENT AS A SEVERED, BLEEDING BEAK. THIS IS LIKE THE ROLLING STONES CIRCA 69 AS DONE BY LCD SOUNDSYSTEM, IF THEY RECORDED FOR LOAD AND WERE BLASTED ON PCP MOST OF THE TIME. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
