Concealer’s album fêted:fetid out on September 4, 2015
Sleazy rock and roll and proto-punk collide with emotionally naked post-folk. “One of the stranger musical partnerships to have ever risen from the Edmonton music scene” (Vue Weekly), Concealer accidentally combines disparate musical traditions to create melodic and hypnotic heavy wave music.
Polaris Music Prize nominated songwriter Mark Davis sings and plays treated bass. And, when not striking poses, missmannered supplies keyboard drones and dial-twisting shrieks and blips. Ancient drum machines provide static beats. Flamboyance spars with stoicism. Ambience flirts with aggression. From sinister to soothing and back and forth again – l. Like Fairport Convention meets Suicide.
fêted:fetid was captured and tweaked by Lorrie Matheson at Arch Audio. A co-release from Weatherbelle and Coax Records.
Release date September 4, 2015
Pre-orders from August 4, 2015

Geoff Berner’s new album and book!
Coax is thrilled to announce that our first new Canadian release will be Geoff Berner’s “We Are Going To Bremen To Be Musicians,” set to launch in the fall of 2015.
In the meantime, check out Geoff’s new book We Are Going To Bremen To Be Musicians, created in collaboration with folk-surrealists Tin Can Forest. The book, with text by Geoff Berner and images by Tin Can Forest, re-tells a dark, strange German folk tale about four animals running away from their masters to become town musicians in the city of Bremen. Published by Tin Can Forest Press, the book is available for pre-order here.
In Toronto on May 7th? Come to the book launch! 7pm at the Pilot Bar (see the Facebook event here).
Keep an eye out for more details of the album launch!
