Maryland’s MINDSET have premiered their entire final EP, entitled “Nothing Less” and out digitally this Friday via REACT! Records. Preorders for the 7″ vinyl version, due out March 11th, will launch Friday as well.
Ev Wivell, the band’s singer, had this to say: “We’ve always been very meticulous in how we operate as a band and this final chapter is no different. This is something we’ve been planning for a long time. We’re proud of what we’ve built together and we’re excited to share these last songs and go out on a high note.”
Formed in 2008 by a group of friends with a shared love of meaningful hardcore,Mindset have undertaken one of the most enigmatic and genuine paths as a band in recent memory. Their devotion to the DIY spirit has seen them release two EPs and the remarkable “Leave No Doubt” LP through their own REACT! Records, a name now synonymous with passionate and honest hardcore / punk. Despite having members spread throughout DC, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, they continue to call the undeniably ripe Baltimore scene their home. From this base of operation, Mindset have taken their energetic live shows and heartfelt, socially conscious message throughout the country and world, with one last run of shows expected in 2016 to conclude their impressive time together.
