The New Mentalists are a band born from the magic of mind-reading and the fate of being left handed! They hand-write songs to make your ears smile and your feet flicker!
After their recent success on YouTube with an iPhone rendition of Kids by Mgmt, The New Mentalists assure you they are still married to their real instruments, and can be seen parading them at a venue near you!
The Mentalists play American Boy on their Iphones!
Battery operated Mentalists on YouTube!
The Mentalists play "Again and Again" using only battery powered / acoustic instruments:
Again & Again by The Mentalists played on paper Korg by monkey puppet!
Look what we did! We downloaded musical instrument applications on our Iphones, so we could play Drums, Bass, Ocarina, and Synth, to cover MGMT's song 'Kids'
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
The Mentalists Heart MGMT xxxx
The Mentalists will be playing April 10th @ The Cavendish Arms in Stockwell, a superfun night of comedy, sketches and Mentalist poptimism -- Go to our Facebook event
Ahoy there, remember us?! Played with yous in Camden a couple of years ago.Just to let people know, you can check out our new EP The Inland Sea here - You can also listen and buy at www.theinlandsea.co.uk Enjoy xxx hope all's well, here's the blurb...
“A call to arms from the perilous waters of the Island. Kinfolk cower in their homes as wild squalls rage fury on us. A far cry from the glassy seas and towering swells from which we profited only a few days ago. Respite cruelly prized from our grasp, our hopes of reprieve in calmer seas lie tattered, at least for now. Scathed but not scarred, we persist through relentless gales and cloudbursts on the fringes of the ocean, passing the church in the bay where many a reveler and mourner has been left stranded at high tide. Through fortune and fortitude we reach the shore and are greeted by warm fires, zestful ales and hearty tales shared with our good friend, (sadly soon to depart us). For the storm has abated and the bow has settled. We wipe our blinkered eyes, ravaged and weary; the majestic scenes enveloped by the Island in a blind rage, ever imprinted in our minds”...
The Inland Sea is inspired by the isle of Anglesey, a place that has always been close to The Mekkits’ hearts... It was recorded and produced at "Studio Los Mekkitos"... in Manchester, and will be followed next year with the ecclectic debut album!
