ABOUT BONE HAUS AND 'CONFOUNDEAD':
Songwriting for Bone Haus' new EP began during the pandemic, shortly after the release of the band's self-titled debut. Whereas the debut was lyrically steered by vocalist Rain Marie toward mental health themes, the new release sees the band drawing on more direct experiences that they endured during the writing process. From haunted rehearsal spaces to toxic relationships, police brutality to esoteric eroticism, "Confoundead" speaks from the heart and goes for the jugular, with biting commentary and profound performances wrapped up in a dark little package and delivered with conviction.
Staying true to their DIY roots, recording and mixing were done by Joe Black and Andre Maldonado, with production mentoring and mastering handled by Jamie Hill of Dept of Energy Mgmt in Tacoma, WA. The band committed most of last year to getting the feel and tonal balance of the production exactly how they wanted it to be, without sacrificing their vision of producing a killer rock release that defies simple description.
