Recording in closet-sized rehearsal rooms, the duo released a number of lo-fi recordings. Returning to their home state of Michigan, they began recruiting Detroit musicians to form what would become KIND BEAST.\n\nBorn of a lifelong love of guitar music, noir aesthetics and literary fiction, KIND BEAST embraces rock n’ roll archetypes and contorts them beneath a gauze of twilight mood while lyrical themes explore shadow selves and shameless romance from angles influenced by a life of travel and Hoen’s work as a psychotherapist. Indebted to Fugazi, The Afghan Whigs and INXS as much as Sabbath and Zeppelin, what results is a consummate dark-rock ride that feels at once familiar and difficult to place amid modern genres. Propelled by Hoen’s crooning narratives of angels and demons, wholesome desire and transgressive detours into the dark heart, KIND BEAST is midnight rock for long drives and comedown hours put forth by gentlemen of wide experience.\n\nKIND BEAST is completed by bassist Sean Bondareff (known as longstanding bassist for Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels) and Guitarist Martin Rodgers, who is making a name for himself as one Detroit’s most talented guitarists.\nA1.
