Casper Skulls
Canadian indie rockers Casper Skulls emerged in 2015 with a dynamic sound that pairs rootsy dream pop and shoegaze with nervy post-punk and soaring alternative rock. The band issued their debut album, Mercy Works, in 2017, which earned a SOCAN Songwriting Prize nomination for the single "Lingua Franca." The group's sophomore long-player, Knows No Kindness, appeared in 2021.
Formed in Toronto in 2015 by Sudbury-based multi-instrumentalists and romantic partners Neil Bednis and Melanie St-Pierre, Casper Skulls coalesced into a four-piece with the additions of Fraser McClean (bass) and Chris Anthony (drums). Drawing inspiration from artists like Pavement, Arcade Fire, My Bloody Valentine, and Sonic Youth, the newly minted quartet honed their chops at Toronto clubs before inking a deal with Buzz Records and issuing their debut EP, Lips & Skull, in 2016. The full-length Mercy Works arrived the following year and garnered praise both at home and abroad for its noisy yet richly textured blend of shoegazey noise rock and literate indie pop. High-profile shows alongside Thurston Moore, the Julie Ruin, PUP, and Charly Bliss helped elevate the group's status further. In 2021, Casper Skulls issued their expansive and refined sophomore effort, Knows No Kindness, which included the dreamy single "Thesis."
