About the new album:
From the land of midnight sun comes a new force of nature: Masheena.
Recorded amidst the sun-scorched landscapes of Austin's Hill Country with renowned producer Machine (Clutch, Lamb Of God, King Crimson), the follow-up to their 2023 debut "West Coast Hard Rock" is heavier, more versatile and packed with soulful, vocal-driven hooks.
Marrying the melodic-centered vision of Scandinavian hard rock with a bluesy, southern-crisp flavor and a healthy slab of fuzz, "Let The Spiders In" is a distilled shot of pure stadium-tailored heavy rock. Ten tracks poised to break hearts and rattle cages that should win over fans of Spiritual Beggars, The Parlor Mob, Rival Sons, Orchid and Dozer.
Some quotes for the album:
Masheena has delivered the No. 1 feel-good album this spring. It has everything from heaviness to soft sweetness, but most of all, it puts me in a very good mood when listening to this album. The heavy blues mixed with a 70s vibe are absolute dynamite, and with Louis masterclass in vocal performance, all I can say is – hats off to you boys, this is a fantastic record!
Staale Rodvelt aka Captain, singer in Kal-El
"It’s great to hear someone inject a good dose of pop-sensibility into stoner rock. Broad-shouldered men with hair on their chests baring their souls to hairy riffs! I love the track 'One Eye,' which leans as much toward catchy Soundgarden as it does toward stoner rock.
West Coast Hard Rock FTW!"
Torkjell Roed aka Toschie, singer in Audrey Horne
