​By Matt Jensen

GREYFACES emerges as a subtle yet compelling force in the music scene, quietly dropping tracks that defy easy categorization. The enigmatic allure of their sound, evident in the mesmerizing track "Depleting My Oxygen," captivates from the very start. The heavily affected vocals, coupled with a pulsating rhythm section and reverb-laden guitars, transport listeners to an otherworldly sonic realm that gradually enchants with each repeated listen.

In contrast, "Young, Dumb and Full Of Rum" adopts a more subdued, misty ballad-like demeanor. While the vocals shine, there's a desire for a touch less distortion, yet the instrumental elements interweave seamlessly, crafting an atmospheric landscape where boundaries between musical components blur and merge. 

A standout moment arrives with "I Can’t Stop," boasting an infectious groove that's undeniably compelling. The expertly crafted interplay between drums, bass and vocals in the mix invokes a sense of sonic perfection reminiscent of '90s alternative music, albeit with a more lavish and textured quality akin to The Jesus and Mary Chain. 

​Throughout this collection, GREYFACES unveils an original sonic tapestry, constructing songs that feel more like immersive soundscapes. The meticulous construction and evocative compositions hint at a promising trajectory, leaving listeners eagerly anticipating the artist's future releases.
