A new youtube video has been published featuring the song "The Minotaur" off The Red Masque's forthcoming new album Mythalogue.
"The Minotaur" was recorded at Orion Sound Studios in Baltimore by engineer Mike Potter, and mixed and mastered by Bob Drake in France.
In other news, the entire mixed/mastered album is now safely in the hands of the record label (Beta-lactam Ring Records).Vocalist Lynnette Shelley is currently working on all the original artworks that will be included with the limited edition version of the album.

Lynnette was also recently interviewed by a journalist for the Philadelphia Inquirer about the success of the band's Kickstarter campaign to fund the album. When the article is published, the band will link the article on their website and on their facebook fan page.
The band hopes you enjoy this little taste of things to come! "The Minotaur" is the shortest of the main songs on the album, as well as the heaviest.
We recently gave Glenn Goring (one of the guitarist / songwriters from the incredible band Comus) a sneak earful of the new album and he had this to say:
"Well, you couldn't class this as boring... I heard some accomplished playing and intriguing musical ideas. At one point I was reminded of Jefferson Airplane, then Stockhausen and here and there Velvet Underground with a bit of Alistair Crowley, XTC, Opeth etc, thrown into the crucible of boiling, fervent and sometimes a very scary sound. Given that I heard it through not the best speakers on the planet the production values sound dynamic and balanced. The guy who did the work most definitely has a feel for your stuff, good choice! I can also sense the connection through your art into this area of the virtually supernatural where your voice excels. Great stuff and well done. Good luck with it and thanks again for allowing me this sneak preview. I really hope it does well"
