Echo Masks are a Canadian alternative rock band. Their website describes their sound as "neo grunge chord progressions with new wave shoegaze lead guitars, topped with growling baritone vocals. Featuring wet guitars, wall of sound production, twisted songwriting sensibilities, and dark lyrical content"[1]. The band is the creation of a single songwriter/lyricist, Andrew White.
Discography
[edit]The band's debut album Moonlight Bleeds was released July 1, 2024.
Moonlight Bleeds is a re-recorded and remastered version of an earlier unreleased album, Shores of Acheron, recorded in 2017.
Band name
[edit]The band name is original and is not a reference to the tradition of some First Nations people in Western Canada of using artistic masks, often in the shape of animal faces, and used in rituals[2]. Although unconfirmed, fans of the band believe the name to connote and conflate two ideas: the echo chambers currently experienced by today's internet and social media users, and the "masks" we all employ, code switching as we go about our day to day life in society.
