MESHIAAK released their blistering second album ‘Mask Of All Misery’, on 15th November 2019, via Mascot Records. Today the band has unleashed a new video for “City of Ghosts”, watch it below.

MESHIAAK will join The Black Dahlia Murder and Municipal Waste in supporting Testament on the band’s Spring North American Tour. The excursion brings the band to The U.S. and Canada for the first time from their native Australia. The tour starts off in Phoenix, Arizona 20^th April and ends in Annaheim, California 28^th May. See the dates in the tour-flyer below.

Meshiaak’s Danny Camilleri shares, “We could not be happier to finally be coming through the United States and Canada, and what better way to do it than with Testament, Black Dahlia Murder and Municipal Waste. You will not want to miss this tour.”

Dean Wells offers, “The video clip was a really fun experiment. Filming it, and directing it ourselves, we tried to capture the vibe of the song and the fun we had playing it. I think it came up great! We hope you enjoy it!” Camilleri adds, “Crank this up and bang your damn heads.”

The November, 2019 new studio release Mask Of All Misery, followed their prior release Alliance of Thieves (2016). At the time, Metal Hammer Magazine applauded its “modern power/thrash metal attack,” Powerplay in the U.K. exclaimed that the album, “bludgeons and berates the senses with incredible precision and astounding musicianship,” while Classic Rock revelled in the “mix of brooding progressive metal and heavy rock.” So, it’s no surprise then, that the band are back to continue the story and have a new member and renewed energy. Formed in Melbourne, by 4ARM’s Danny Camilleri and Teramaze’s Dean Wells with bassist Andrew Cameron, they have recruited drummer David Godfrey.

MESHIAAK will release their blistering second album ‘Mask Of All Misery’, on 15th November, via Mascot Records.

Today the band has unleashed a new track ‘City Of Ghosts’ from the album, listen to it below.

Danny Camilleri on City Of Ghosts:

“You wanted heavy, thrashy and something that kicks your ass, then I give you, CITY OF GHOSTS!“

It has been three years since the Australian quartet’s debut album ‘Alliance of Thieves’ dropped, which married dark undertones, heavy grooves and sophistication whilst retaining old-school metal values. Upon its release Metal Hammer applauded its “modern power/thrash metal attack,” Powerplay exclaimed that the album “bludgeons and berates the senses with incredible precision and astounding musicianship” and Classic Rock revelled in the “mix of brooding progressive metal and heavy rock.”

With a record you can put it on and hear it, feel it even. But sometimes you really need to listen, take it in as a whole, process and think about it. ‘Mask Of All Misery’ is one of those albums. “People will take what they chose to at the end of the day,” ponders Camilleri. “But, I’ve found by talking with a lot of fans that they do pay attention and really digest the content of our music. It’s an amazing feeling when someone connects to it through hearing it and then gets even deeper because they can connect with the content as well.. goes to show you that you are never alone.”
