MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES – Control

“MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES perform a diverse collection of music from the creative and chaotic mind of Perth singer/songwriter LAITH TIERNEY. Having fronted countless bands over the years, Laith is arguably one of WAs most-recognised and accomplished artists in the realm of Alternative. As the former frontman of The Bible Bashers and Fear of Comedy, notable achievements include the release of multiple albums, extensive touring and sharing the stage with acts such as KILLING JOKE, MARILYN MANSON, THE DAMNED, THE BEASTS (OF BOURBON) and BAUHAUS frontman PETER MURPHY. MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES is the culmination of Tierney’s deep well of influences and experience. To bring his ideas to life, he has enlisted an impressive assembly of Perth music luminaries, each bringing their own distinct flavour to the mix; Drummer Nathan Sproule (Ratking, Covoids) Guitarist Aidan Gordon (Rinehearts, 6s and 7s) Guitarist Jozef Grech (Tim Nelson, Datura 4) Producer/Keys Ron Pollard (Tangled Thoughts of Leaving) Bassist Liam Adams (Fear of Comedy) MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES find no reason a band’s repertoire can’t be as eclectic as any music lovers’ record collection. Throwing out any irrelevant rule books in favour of limitless expression, they experiment with everything from Garage to Goth, Post-Rock to Punk Rock, Surf to Soul and more. With purpose and intent, MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES distill decades of style and genre into a sound all of their own.“

Described by the artist as “a blast of manic energy that doesn’t conform to genre”, this is the newest release from Australian alternative band MAN OF A THOUSAND FACES. A deep and slightly unsettling vocal is the glue that binds this very unique and diverse soundscape together. With wailing guitar progressions, a multi-layered instrumental composition, and Control “draws from multiple styles to create a chaotic hybrid that screams for independence in a world trying to conform and enslave.”
