DESCRIPTION
GAY BEAST
To Smithereens

Label : Skin Graft Records
Year : 2011
Format : LP
Style : No Wave / Rock
Availability : In stock

Price : 17.50 € - BUY
Description :Gay Beast formed mid-2005 during a fit of anxiety towards Midwestern passive aggression and as an attempt to make music that was queer in composition and aesthetic. Wielding a battery of drums, scraped and hammered guitars, chanted vocals, retro-future synths, saxophone, and other electronics, the trio (Angela Gerend, Daniel Luedtke, Isaac Rotto) build songs on grounds that adjoin complexity and catchiness, a space where both abrasion and tunefulness inhabit.

With releases on DNT, Gilgongo, and Skin Graft, Gay Beast have garnered a reputation for uniqueness on the rock fringe, their sound being both too weird for the stereotype of a 'gay band' and 'too gay' for the noise-rock set. Upon examination of the influence blender, one finds remnants of Devo, Captain Beefheart, equatorial pop-rock from the 60s and 70s, no wave, and feminist theory. This concoction, delivered via Gay Beast's unique political approach to composition, is explored heavily on their third album 'To Smithereens', appearing on Skin Graft Records.
