Clipd Beaks – “to Realize” – [lovepump united]

Heavily layered, droning and slow blend of shoegaze and post punk from Clipd Beaks. This 2010 release is rather dark with some occult and apocalyptic themes. Self described as “way goth,” Clipd Beaks easily moves from melodic and almost light to a wall of sound within the space of one track. The typical fare of guitar, bass and drums is augmented with occasional brass and heavy effects.
