My Gold Mask Returns

mgmB. Gray is going to be pissed I beat him to this one, as he’s the guy that first turned us on to My Gold Mask. Sure, it’s not my typical post, but I love a solid club hit from time to time. The group sounds a lot like Robyn on this track, using a dance floor beat for the voice of Gretta to work atop. There’s a catchiness to this track that’s hard to turn away from, so put your judgments aside and just have fun dancing about to this great little tune. The band will release their new album, Anxious Utopia in March of next year.

Pulsing New Tune from My Gold Mask

mygoldmaskPersonally, I’m struggling this week.  It’s my last week with my students, and as 13 year olds, they’re likely to be a little rambunctious, so I’ve got to match their energy.  This new tune from My Gold Mask does just the trick, with a pulsing rhythm that moves the song forward.  Gretta sounds a little bit bratty, but in that endearing sense that empowers women and makes boys swoon.  There’s moments of this track that remind me a bit of Raveonettes, but of course, if you up the dance attitude.  Expect a new album from the group later on this year.

New Jam from My Gold Mask

mygoldmaskI feel like Monday’s always a good day for me to chime in with something upbeat to get your ears and dance shoes ready for some hump day happy hour action, or maybe just a nice jog.  This latest single from My Gold Mask is sure to do the trick for you; it’s got a driving rhythm to provide some excellent energy, not to mention a vocal that would make Kevin Bacon run around doing gymnastics in an old warehouse.  It’s meant for good times, and sometimes those are the tracks that make our day; I hope this song makes your day.

Dark Pop From My Gold Mask

goldenmaskMy Gold Mask released their last album Leave Me Midnight just this past February but are already hard at on more new music for their fans.  A planned series of singles are in the works for the band currently and this new track “Dangerous” is the first taste of that new material.  It’s an incredibly sexy dark pop number.  I can’t think of any other way to describe so enjoy and tell us what you think.

More New Music From My Gold Mask

12.06.12_MGM-1445_03.142624

The release date for the latest My Gold Mask album Leave Me Midnight is quickly approaching (February 19th to be exact) and I couldn’t be more excited.  Their sound is clearly in the same vein as bands like Crystal Castles, but with not quite as much heavy ass synth and more of a focus on quality vocal delivery.  Prior to the upcoming release date in a couple of weeks, the band have offered this new song “Burn Like the Sun” to quench your thirst for lady pop.  Hopefully you’ll see why I can’t wait for this release date.

New Lady Pop From My Gold Mask

It’s no secret that we ATH kids really like the ladies of pop music, especially the ones that can carry a tune.  Gretta Rochelle and her band known as My Gold Mask certainly fall into that vein of synth laden pop with some outstanding female lead vocals.  Of course this receives the ATH seal of approval.

My Gold Mask have a new album coming out on February 19th entitled Leave Me Midnight.
