High Roller Records, ltd 350, 425gsm heavy cardboard cover, partial UV spot, insert, download code, Los Angeles-based thrash metallers Mindwars are back with their fifth studio album, InchVInch. Originally self-released by the band in early 2024, it now gets it's well-deserved international exposure via High Roller Records.

InchI didn't want anyone to think this was a continuation of Holy Terror, Inch he clarifies. InchI always looked at it as an appendage or extension, and it is only natural that there are hints of Holy Terror in our music.Inch With Vitari's relocation to L.A. and the most recent addition of Zaccaro, Mindwars entered a new creative phase. InchHaving a more varied musical background and playing live together more often really brought us closer as a band, Inch explains Alvord, whose approach to singing has also matured on InchVInch. InchI really tried to hear melodies as a vocalist and to stay within my range, Inch which gave him the confidence to even record a thrashified cover of Supertramp's 'The Logical Song'. Elsewhere, InchVInch surprises with the nimble instrumental 'The Road to Madagascar', which was inspired by an emotional visit to a Holocaust museum, and the nine-minute 'Vultures of the Eighth Wonder', an epic journey blending influences from Al Di Meola and prog rock with metal. Inch It took about a year and a half to write
