Charmed Human Art Of Significance

Mindsplit are a new band yet one with years of experience behind it's individual members. With a style planted somewhere between straight metal, progressive metal and classic rock the band deliver a truly epic tale with their debut album Charmed Human Art Of Significance which is set for release on September 17th 2010 on Lion Music. Featuring veterans of the Scandinavian metal scene in guitarist Matthias Holm and vocalist H.B. Anderson, the pair began writing and recording together again in their spare time c.2003 once again after the duo had worked together in the late 80's with The 'n' Sin. When the music was taking shape bassist Conny Payne (Madison) joined along with highly respect sessions musicians - drummer Jon Skre and keyboardist Jonas Lidstrm. This new collaboration turned into a whole different ballgame though when H.B. found his great old, old grandfather Xerxes Anderson's Artificial Universe (a.k.a. Prof. Xandau 1807 ~ 1851) notes from his therapy sessions. Prof. Xandau was a much respected therapist during the first half of 19th century and had his sessions all over the world based in both Europe and the U.S. These notes are the solid ground to this project and are used to tell a true story about psychological thoughts and human behaviours. H.B. Anderson comments, The memory notes declare what's going on in the human mind in different situations making for compelling listening, although as there are no names involved so it's totally anonymous. It's fantastic literature and breathtaking reading, the human brain is very complex and odd. You can say it sure lives it's own life. This inspired lyrical setting led to the music of what would become C.H.A.O.

S taking on it's own personality. This story line is set to a musically accomplished and captivating release which will draw the listener in from the first listen. Musically the album is big, powerful, dark yet with subtle light and a very impressive aura with a powerful production to suit the mood. This has been further extended by the promotional video for the song NME - Myself and I which has received positive reactions from YouTube viewers worldwide. With Charmed Human Art Of Significance Mindsplit has produced a debut album of exceptionally high quality and one that will appeal to a wide range of metal lovers and those with an appetite for enthralling concept stories. This is The Beginning of a new horizon, the first step into another dimension. The clock is set; the time is right, bless the discoverers' great divine. Sit down and lean your body back, make yourself comfortable, close your eyes and embrace the black. Prepare for a journey through mazes in mind, a travel through changes of turbulent time. Fall apart with the civil art is like a sacred curse. Welcome to my world, my grand design. Prof. Xandau.
