Florida’s En Masse, which features former Moments in Grace/Decahedron bassist Jake Brown on vocals and Further Seems Forever drummer Steve Kliesath, have posted a free download of their debut full length, All Covet, All Lose.
The band was formerly known as En Masse, but changed their name as they explained:

However, in the future, we have plans to bring an exciting and raw live performance to venues & living rooms of all locations, shapes & sizes. These plans, combined with the name change, are a breath of fresh air for us. A “second wind”, if you will…

Ed is going to put some more photos up soon but he has been busy building various wooden devices to make our studio sound better. Things are are going good.
