Masca – love letters – album review

Thirteen months on from their second EP, Bristolians Masca are here to deliver the big one – their debut album! The trio have quietly been making a name for themselves with impressive singles and live shows and now comes that always important statement record, ‘Love Letters’.

If the band have been making a statement thus far it’s certainly been that they are here to be the first Masca rather than trying to shoehorn themselves into any existing scene. They are fiercely unique and that has identified them as a band worth investing in.

There will be many therefore looking forward to this first full-length collection and its evident as soon as you begin your first listen that the record is everything fans will want it to be.

Operating succinctly in the intersection between rock and pop in a gripping sonic Venn diagram, the band have crafted a sound that you can easily consume but also allows for deeper inspection for those wishing to.

With frank and insightful lyrics tackling both the bigger problems facing the world in 2026 and the more personal concerns present as a musician in the modern industry, there is certainly plenty to dissect on this intricate record.

Backed by simmering guitar work and a hazy aesthetic, these tracks feel made for big festival sets and showcase perfectly the body of work that the trio have generated.

Given debut albums are such a big introduction for bands, ‘Love Letters’ is the perfect place for new fans to get engaged with a band who clearly have plenty to give.
