Crucial Attack Records: State Of Mind – Mental Gold Pre-Orders!!

Originally inspired by bands like Maximum Penalty, Breakdown, Fahrenheit 451 and Leeway, State of Mind have been playing groovy NY styled hardcore since 2005. Now, four years later, the band present their second full length album entitled MENTAL GOLD, to be released by Crucial Attack Records.



Download a song from the new record: Justify ( http://www.crucialattack.nl/MP3/State_Of_Mind_-_Justify.mp3 )

It’s a new chapter in the history of a band that has previously released a demo, two 7 inches and a full length. The release marks expansion, musically as well as lyrically. Influences ranging from hip hop to classic rock can be found, while on the lyrical side they take a critical stance towards passiveness and lack of awareness in today’s society. Not very surprising for a hardcore band, you might think, but it’s turning into a rare feature these days.

Crucial Attack Records is now taking pre-orders for State Of Mind – Mental Gold LP/CD. You can order the gatefold LP on limited blue vinyl or on white vinyl. The releasedate for the record is May 16, when State Of Mind will play with True Colors and Bitter End at the Trix, Antwerpen (Belgium).

LP Pressing info:
100 Solid Dark Blue Vinyl
400 Solid White Vinyl

Pre-order “State Of Mind – Mental Gold” LP or CD now on http://www.crucialattack.nl
