Interview Through Email:
Why start a Prog Metal band? "All of the members of Masquerade of Shadows like progressive metal. We love the elements of technique combined with the emotion of metal music. It is a great combination! Symphony X is one of our favorite bands and a huge influence on us."
You have members that have lived all over the world, does that help bring in new ideas when writing music? "Having a diverse musical palette has added a nice mixture to our rhythmical and melodic compositions."
What is the Metal scene like in Alaska? "Here in Alaska the most popular form of live metal is the Thrash and Grind Core type stuff. There are not a lot of venues to play at in our city of Anchorage. There are many metal music fans here though."
How did you come up with your name? "Originally, we wanted to call our band "Masquerade" after the Phantom of the Opera song. Since there was a band (out of Sweden, I think) that already had the name we decided on "Masquerade of Shadows". It seems to fit us perfectly!"
Thank you Masquerade of Shadows for you time. Wish you nothing but the best of luck
