Sex Mask drop new single Circe, and re-release How To Be Cool At Parties

Sex Mask have just unleashed a new single, Circe.

The track arrives alongside a re-release of the Melbourne gang’s 2022 song How To Be Cool At Parties – both of which sit on a new double A-Side 7” vinyl.

Speaking about the former track, frontman Wry Gray explains, “Taking from Homer’s classic Odyssey, the use of Circe – The evil sorceress that turns men into animals – is an illustration of my own projections at the end of a bad relationship.

“The way we demonise and mythologise others to satisfy our own peace or fulfilment in the moment, in this instance I felt best analogised by myself as ‘man-made beast’, bright red with embarrassment.”
