ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Embracing the angular, semi-melodic influence of post-punk pioneers such as the Homosexuals and This Heat along with the electronic surfaces of fellow contemporary no-wave revivalists, Clipd Beaks began making music amid the chilly surroundings of Minneapolis, MN, in 2003.

Using drums, bass, synthesizers, samplers, and one broken guitar, CLIPD BEAKS create a thick wall of sound that's backed with pulsing beats and spiked with subliminal lyrics delivered in the tense, ecstatic tones of a street preacher.
