Without the drumming of Phil Collins, who does appear on some of Brand X's albums, Masques still maintains a snug, jazzy-prog milieu and comes off clean and tight. Each song has a different beat, speed, and tempo with a satisfying assortment of keyboards and percussion instruments to keep the entire album afloat. Resounding xylophone and chimes outline the music on the seven tracks, with "Earth Dance" and "The Poke" coming up a little bit stronger than the rest.

АC/DC drummer Phil Rudd recently spoke to Libel Music about his debut solo album, "Head Job", which was released at the end of last month via Universal Music Australia. The songs on the CD were penned primarily by Rudd with the assistance of Allan Badger and Geoffrey Martin — musicians Phil met on the local scene in New Zealand, which he says "turned out to be a great musical partnership." "Badge" and Martin also perform vocals, guitars and bass on the album, with Rudd sitting in the producer's seat. The tracks came together over a period of time recorded at several locations including the studio that Rudd built himself not far from his restaurant Phil's Place in Tauranga, New Zealand.

»Storm Of Blades« was recorded in December/January 2014. The call to return to the road supporting the legendary PRIMAL FEAR, had the band taking a break all until April/May 2014, when they finally continued working on and concluded the album at Pama Studio in Torsås, Sweden. The production was handled by BULLET and Magnus “Mankan” Sedenberg.

Незадолго до начала работы над альбомом гитарист Тони Айомми, игравший с наконечниками-протезами, на три полутона приспустил струны, чтобы ослабить нагрузку на травмированные пальцы. То же сделал бас-гитарист Гизер Батлер: так возникло новое, утяжеленное звучание, которое повлияло на многих музыкантов, ставших исполнять впоследствии stoner- и sludge-метал.

Заглавный трек (который был назван в честь фильма 1964 года с Борисом Карлоффом в главной роли, и в свою очередь дал новое название группе, тогда ещё известной как Earth) появился после того, как Гизер Батлер взял у Оззи Осборна книгу XVI века о чёрной магии. «…Я проснулся среди ночи: у дальнего конца кровати стояла фигура в чёрном. Несколько секунд спустя она словно бы растворилась, заставив меня пережить момент незабываемого ужаса… Я рассказал об этом Оззи, и у него, судя по всему, эта история засела в памяти. Едва мы начали играть Black Sabbath, он тут же выдал целиком весь этот текст… После всего этого стало ясно: иного названия для нашей группы и быть не может!»
