Florida based heavy metal band Mindcage puts a fresh, conceptual spin on an internationally-embraced classic heavy metal sound, originally established by artists like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. Not unlike the aforementioned groups, Mindcage serves up a potent blend of heavy melodies mixed with progressive influences à la Rush, but offers a unique steampunk twist to the theme of the music.
Their new concept album titled Our Own Devices was released in September 2013 and now will enter the studio wit triple-platinum producer Michael Wagener’s WireWorld studio (Ozzy Osbourne, Accept, Megadeth, Alice Cooper, Helloween) next month to mix even more songs for a special edition version. The original version of Our Own Devices was self-produced by the band and engineered by Wagener, so his familiarity with the project will only add to the potency of the special edition, coming this summer.
The special edition of Our Own Devices will include exclusive, never-before-released live footage from the band’s headlining performance at this year’s Florida-based Comic Con event, Pensacon. Our Own Devices also includes the band’s new single ‘The One Constant’, which can be streamed via lyric video below. The track will hit radio on May 19th and will be available via iTunes on May 20th. Mindcages electrifying mix of classic metal guitars and powerful vocals is exciting and well worth traditional metal fans giving a listen.
