Album artwork
Fearles: “Some of the gear I use has a tendency to take on a life of its own — for example,
the Effectron delay, which Arthur Russell also used. It was feeding back on itself, and ended up sounding like a radio conversation — literally voices from within the machine. On the Echoplex, the tape has never been changed. It’s eroded by the hands of time. When you record over the tape, things bleed in from what was there before, like people from the past.”
Following first single While My Machines Gently Weep
Fearless comes up with another vibey thrill.
It’s the title track DEATH MASK. A trippy, ambient, full instrumental jam,
fueled by non-stop circling drum beats, quickly bouncing in your head.
Fly high.
