Singapore Alternative pop band, The Facade, released their long-awaited debut EP <Vanity> yesterday under the local record label Cross Ratio Entertainment. The album explores the concept of growing up and the drama that follows the young hot-blooded rebellious youth, and the pains and wonders of transitioning into adulthood. The band establishes their signature melodic tropes and groovy beats throughout the album, along with the recurring underlying theme of relatable adolescent misadventures across all tracks.
<Vanity> is mastered by Max Hons who has racked up the recording and mixing credits for numerous top 40 artists including Bastille, The 1975, Jake Bugg, Years and Years, and Rizzle Kicks.
On the album are three of The Facade’s widely popular singles that were released earlier – ‘Better Than This, ‘Victim’ and the most recently released, ‘White’. Their first single hit ‘Better Than This’ reached #2 on the overall iTunes chart on its day of release, with their following hit single ‘Victim charted at #4 alongside Coldplay within its day of release.

This coming Sunday, 25 June, The Facade will be having their album launch party at Esplanade Annexe Studio which starts at 730pm. Local electronic act Jasmine Sokko is slated to be the opening act.
