Course

Concealment were formed in Sabugo, a small place near Sintra in 1995. The musical style of this band consists of a complex dissonant guitar work, off-time polyrhythmic drummings, unconventional 9 string bass lines and a expressive bleak vocal style. The Concealment lyrics theme are based in the coldness of the modern world, the desperation of present and next generations.
