NEWS: LIES! detail new album “Mind Control”!

Having returned after a seven year long hiatus with 2022 EP “Rebirth“, Dutch Metallic Hardcore heavyweights LIES! have confirmed that wasn’t a flash in the pan nostalgia trip with a new album slated for an 8th December release. Titled “Mind Control” it has been preceded by the title track with a guest appearance from Hugo Zerrad of French Hardcore collective Worst Doubt on one called “Propaganda“. He also gave them the cover art and pre-orders are available over at bandcamp.

Vocalist Rene Smit comments: “In the midst of our chaotic lives, a form of pollution has emerged – ‘Mind Pollution.’ This pollution warps our thoughts and perceptions, driven by constant urges and misleading influences, all fueled by an unending need for connection. The fear of missing out and the fear of loss perpetuate this cycle. Within our minds, a storm rages — a tornado of anger, opinions, and external influences. This mental turmoil threatens our core beliefs and even our ability to reason. In the midst of this turmoil, we risk losing our true selves, pulled away by external forces. This internal storm can be overwhelming, capable not only of shattering our world but also leading to complete estrangement or even more dire consequences“.
