about

The UK’s Frame of mind are a band pushing sonic limitations atypically associated with hardcore, with the release of their debut album 'Irieshun' on Quality Control HQ Records. As with their Demo in 2016, and 'Weight of Two' EP the following year on The Essence Records, you are getting raw punk aggression, but also a rare soulful spirit, with lyrics encouraging an inward thinking outlook.

The word ‘irieshun’ is Patois for ‘appreciation’, expressing praise towards something or someone, a rare feeling in an increasingly chaotic world. This release however invites you to do just that with souring melodies and complex song-writing lifting you up. Oli McVean’s lyrics harken back to a time when hardcore breathed a new and refreshing positive anger into youth culture, and the possibilities for the movement seemed endless.

The foundations of this record give a shout out to late 80s NYHC bands that defied the mould of their time... Underdog, Absolution and Crumbsuckers. However, combining this with inspiration from prog rock, hip hop & reggae - Frame of Mind create something which is truly new.

This album is electric. From the first track it's nonstop chaos and fun, and was a great way to start my journey into thrash metal and hardcore. spencer_mjeh

Tout le monde de bien informé sait que cet EP va devenir cultissime d'ici 5 ans. Peut-être le premier EP le plus authentique de la nouvelle scène hardcore émotif. Raton (Horns Up)

A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them! perpendikel
