Masquerader
'Nothing Will Change' - EP review
Reading’s favourite noisy boi’s & DIY kings Masquerader have just released their debut EP ‘Nothing Will Change’!
​
Bursting with energy, the math-punk trio are hitting hard with this beast of an EP which also features remixes from Caleb Paice, Chameleon & Silent Weapon.
Ever true to their passion for DIY, the EP is self produced & really captures the spirit of the band & their super charged live performances.
The addictive ear worm of a single ‘Pressure’ sits in good company with ‘I.Am.Masquerader’, being the first track written by the band therefore it seems fitting that it's the EP opener, & ‘Paper Thin’ which explores a more atmospheric slow build approach.
BBC Introducing’s track of the week ‘Mellify’ is an absolute highlight. Clever changes in both vocal & musical style, it flips between post metal & hip hop with unexpected breaks, whilst a darkly ominous synth looms deliciously in the background.
​
An explosive EP that deserves to be played loud!
'Nothing Will Change' is out now and you can catch Masquerader live on 22nd July at Facebar Reading ( check out their social pages for live dates in London & Brighton ).
