\"CasperToronto’s Casper Skulls have revealed a new track Nighthawks<\/em> and also announces their upcoming SXSW dates and spring tour. Recorded at the same time as the band’s first single for Buzz Records Mink Coats<\/em><\/a>, Nighthawks<\/em> sees Casper Skulls\u00a0near their heaviest, with the band building to a furious crescendo under\u00a0the call and response vocals of Neil Bednis and Melanie St-Pierre in what Bednis describes as an ode to dissatisfaction.<\/p>\n

“‘Nighthawks’\u00a0was one of the first songs we worked on as a band,”<\/em> Bednis explains.\u00a0“We recorded it a year-and-a-half ago at the same time we recorded the song ‘Mink Coats’\u00a0with Taylor Barrow. It’s about a period I went through feeling stuck in a pattern of “nightlife” monotony. At the time I felt so unfulfilled and I wanted things to change for myself, but what I’ve come to realize is that no matter where I run that feeling of boredom doesn’t go away unless I keep moving forward and keep growing.”<\/p>\n
