Crushing Progressive Death Metal from Flower Mound/Austin.
Houston's Masqued weave orchestral grandeur into progressive metal architecture, a symphonic approach that carries the ambition of the city's outsized character. Since 2013 the band has pushed toward theatrical heaviness with genuine compositional craft.

Drawing on the creative ferment of Denton's college-town underground, they push progressive metal into genuinely unpredictable shapes.
