This War Will Last Forever

Mendeed play an extremely exciting mix of thrash metal and hardcore with Maidenesque guitar solos and will appeal to every fan of metalcore, melodic death, thrash and hardcore alike. Slowly and very meticulously, Mendeed gained notoriety for their full on blend of Maiden meets Slayer with a touch of Avenged Sevenfold-influenced metal. After initial promising releases through Copro Records and Mark Daghorn's Rising Records, Mendeed gained the attention of Nuclear Blast. The band suported a number of high class acts, such as Anthrax, Cradle of Filth, Slipknot, and Trivium just to name a few. Since the release of their Rising debut mini album From Shadows Came Darkness in September 2004, their songs have been played on all major rock and metal radio stations and a live session was recorded and aired on BBC Radio 1 Rockshow. In December 2004, the hard work put in by the band was awarded when the video for the single Ignite the Flames was added to the playlists of MTV 2 shows Headbanger's Ball and 120 Minutes, and was in constant rotation on Scuzz TV. Relentless touring all across the country made them one of the tightest bands on the UK scene. The critically acclaimed Act of Sorrow (2005) and Beneath a Burning Sky (2005) were only teasers of what was to come with the release of their first full-length album This War Will Last Forever! Produced by Mark Daghorn, there is no doubt this album is indeed a masterpiece! Comparisons drawn to Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Iron Maiden, Kse, Unearth and In Flames show that this modern Scottish metal gang is a truly unique force. In 2007, Mendeed released their second and final album The Dead Live by Love. New edition re-released on Golden Disc, limited and numerated to 2000 copies.
