Melbourne post-punk and indie-rock newcomers Sex Mask release their self-titled EP today through Unpopular Recordings.
The release was preceded yesterday by “Lockjaw,” accompanied by a new video.
Sex Mask occupy the increasingly fertile overlap between post-punk abrasion, alternative guitar music and contemporary underground rock, but the EP format gives listeners a better opportunity to determine whether the group can extend that intensity beyond a single track.
Melbourne remains one of the world's most consistently productive cities for independent guitar music, and Sex Mask provide another young name worth following from that ecosystem.
