Facet will be releasing their self-titled debut LP through Hex Records this year. Facet are a trio from Oakland that began in 2019. They quickly got underway with their debut self-released EP Duck that summer and then did a west coast tour later that same year. Over the last few years they were able to hunker down and write what would become their full length, which is an expanded and refined vision of the first EP- coils of knotty and rhythmic bass, jangling angular guitar, and driving post-hardcore riffs propel this group to take their influences (think Repetition or Challenge-era UNWOUND) into this decade. Coming off of lockdown the trio began playing again in earnest throughout the Bay Area opening for the likes of Metz, Kowloon Walled City, and Tunic. The debut full length will be out in September through Hex Records. Facet was recorded by Scott Evans of Kowloon Walled City at GSE Studios and mastered by Amar Lal of Big Ups.
