about

Grey Causeway stitches together years of Bay Area underground pedigree with rudimentary post-punk elements into a sound that’s fresh and electric. The band, including Andy Asp, Chris Appelgren, Omen Starr, and Frankie Koeller, are a convergence of Oakland’s storied independent musical history, hailing from bands such as Smokers, Nuisance, The Peechees, The Pattern, Papercuts, and Jim Yoshii Pile Up.

Recorded in the Bunker, a music studio collective and rehearsal space, with longtime collaborator Sikwaya Condon, Grey Causeway’s debut album pairs caustic minimalism with Asp’s haunting lyrics. A melange of existential dread and wry, deadpan satire, Grey Causeway’s sound bridges eras: wiry basslines stripped to a monochrome throb, cascading sheets of corroded melody, and mechanical percussion, with evocative vocals. Asp contorts his voice into a spectral croon, while Koeller’s bass lines are a motorik thrum. Appelgren anchors the chaos with militaristic percussion, and Starr’s textural guitar conjures hypnotic melodies.

Despite their veteran status, Grey Causeway’s music is for today– a clenched fist of jagged guitars and synth sounds, unrelenting bass, that oscillates between detachment and frayed desperate hope. Music for a life lived perpetually on the brink.
