Next month My Gold Mask will release their new ep A Million Miles (From Where We Were Last), and I final had a chance to listen to the full ep. The release will be a 12" vinyl with download, and will have four track including the band’s cover of "Bette Davis Eyes". The ep kicks of with the thunderous "Ghost In Your Bed". Gretta Rochelle (Vocals, Drums) is so fierce on this entire ep, but it is especially felt on this opening track.
The comparison to Siouxsie Sioux is too easy, but so true. "I Don’t Need A Reason" comes next with its defiance and pounding rhythm. The duo slows it down on "Bobbi", but show a more orchestral ability. The ep closes with the lo-fi and drum heavy cover of "Bette Davis Eyes". The ep is the bands follow-up to January’s A Thousand Voices. You can preorder the album here.
The band will celebrate the release of A Million Miles on November 13th at at Schubas. They are also playing this week (Oct. 13th) in Bloomington, IN at Buskirk-Chumley Theatre with The New Pornographers.
