Hockey Dad

A project that has been bagged and tagged for years, “The Clip” is a collection of songs from a lost time in HD lore; a time of uncertainty, vulnerability and free-wheelin’. A brunt, forward facing EP layered on a foundation of irritable energy. Calling back to some of the more abrasive sounds and styles of previous records Brain Candy and Blend Inn, these songs are an exorcism of a past life. After the carefully crafted and gently performed songs of Rebuild Repeat, “The Clip” feels confrontational and determined to be heard. Laying out feelings of hopelessness, cynicism and ambivalent acceptance to a post-normal planet earth - ushered along by unrelenting guitars, stickily sweet drums and vocal deliveries bred for a rumbling live stage. Join us for a trip back in time to visit younger, brattier versions of Hockey Dad as they undo The Clip and feast on the baked goods inside.
