Masked Intruder
Love and Other Crimes

Some of you will imagine that the cover artwork of this new Masked Intruder EP is inspired by the Garbage Pail Kids collectors cards. And we get to see the Intruders on the cover artwork, a great artwork I might add. It sort of tells of an interesting band of guys, all named intruder – I wonder if they are brothers.

Pop-punk is how we can describe the music of these masked guys, and you could say that it intrudes on many other band’s music. Not exactly unique in terms of style, but catchy and energetic with only ten minutes of playing time so variation will hardly be an issue unless you play the EP many, many times over. There are many bands playing stuff like this but I still don’t think these guys are as anonymous as the masked intruders that make up this band.

I like this, it is positive – and it is humorous. I think it is an EP that makes you happier when you listen to it; it is well produced and catchy. Great music to listen to in your getaway car when you are running away from moustached cops in a high-speed chase. The niggle I have is that it is just a ten-minute EP, I think they could just as well have made five or six more tracks and made it an album.

Six very good tracks and I think it is an EP well worth spending some ten minutes on, I like it and it almost makes me smile – and you should know that I never smile. Not really the most unique or exciting EP I have heard but it is still very good.

HHHHHHH
