Cover My Face As The Animals Cry

Description

“MASQUER is a small fragment of the songs we listened to, starting with the sound of The Cure, although upon closer listening, we find slight allusions to SMASHING PUMPKINS, BLONDE REDHEAD, EL PERRO DEL MAR, SONIC YOUTH, MADONNA, BANANARAMA, THE XX, THE FIELD, JENNY WILSON, KIM WILDE, and I could go on indefinitely. Melodies, rhythms, and sounds that we have made our own and combined into something new.” Masquer, following in the footsteps of 80s New Wave, releases their first album, *Cover My Face As The Animals Cry*, produced by artist and composer Per Egland and mixed by Bjorn Hansell (Fever Ray). Over the past months, the first single, 'Happiness', has resonated with the Swedish public, and THE FIELD's remix has created a buzz on music blogs worldwide. After shining at the Femmes s'en Mêlent festival in the spring, the band is expected to return in the fall for a few dates.
