Ghost Throats #4: Auld Beak - s/t Cassette

I think it's a rule - at any given point, Saskatoon has the best band. It's just that when one band ends, all those dudes reshuffle and start the new best band.

Out of the aftermath of Black Magic Pyramid was born Auld Beak - the major difference is that they're aren't playing something horrifying anymore, now they're playing something fun. It's like post-hardcore leaning in the direction of indie rock - or the other way around. See, they're the masters of all styles. If this time around they want to be somewhere in the realm of Brainworms and be all gruff and oddly poppy then they'll do just that - and do it better than everyone. Auld Beak can do what they want. Auld Beak are kings.

Only a handful of these tapes survive at BART - reach out and touch.
