Details to come…. “Unfortunately: it's all too seldom
that an American rock band will come on to the scene, seemingly out of nowhere,
to shake things up on some sort of musical level. Fortunately: we DO have The
Red Masque, who have a penchant to do exactly that. Singer
Lynnette Shelley's vocal prowess is so extremely formidable, that it stands
unrivaled in today's world of advancement-based music (what some folks still
stubbornly refer to as "Progressive Rock"). Her vocal delivery, both
strong and passionate, is insistently astounding, and whilst never overbearing
to the intent of her lyrical matter, often lends a helping hand of credence to
it. This is a sign of musical maturity, and far too few are willing to examine
this presentation, or to strip away their own influences in the hope of
creating something new; Thankfully, Ms. Shelley helps her style of music to
break its own mold. The band
alongside her is comprised of top-notch musicians [Brandon Ross, Vonorn and
Andrew Kowal], who compose and play a fresh new slant in a school of music
whose major proponents lost their sense of immediacy long ago. They work long
and hard together on the compositions, and it shows. Within the framework of
"normal" instrumentation (meaning guitars, keys, bass and drums), and
a few not-so-ordinary (like the erhu), The Red Masque exceed the parameters of
PROG which time and again have reproduced formulaic results, and therefore go
well beyond the norm of their contemporaries.” --Dave
