about

Three Masses, Volumes 1, 2, and 3 are collectively the sophomore release of the noise duo Shield Your Eyes. Each volume is a non-denominational ritual of electro-mechanical alchemy, switching back and forth between communion (duo) and deviation (solo). While no set rules were spoken during the recording of these volumes beyond this structure, what emerged was a tightly thematic, highly cohesive work with a consistent ebb and flow through the heavy and monolithic to the unstable and histrionic.
