‘Your Mind’ is a self-reflective anthem brimming withcathartic choruses underpinned by a defiant beat and driving rhythm section thatbuilds into a frantic finale 20 BPM faster than the start. The track lends heavily onthe band’s influences in the early Emo scene (Death Cab For Cutie) as well as more moderncontemporaries, such as the manifesto-esque delivery ofThe 1975’s‘Love It IfWe Made It’ .Completely produced by bassistPedro Leite, the band have developed evenfurther sonically from their EP earlier this year‘Echoes In A Shallow Bay’whichwas praised by

Speaking on the track, lead singerJacob Wheldonsays:
‘I look at the past to remember who I am and towardsthe future to become who I hope I could be, between the two I forget to exist, evenmore so this last year than usual. With ‘Your Mind’ I wanted something kind of violent, alive,present – on the brink of total collapse or at the moment of evolution. To reset thecircuit, wake up and make sure I wasn’t getting out the other end of this year’s tunnelonly to find it had gone full circle.”
Where the band really excel however, is their liveshows; lauded for their energetic and charismatic performances, the band have cut theirteeth supporting some of the biggest names in UK rock scene, includingBombay Bicycle Club,Spectorand soonSlow Readers ClubandKing No-Onelater this year.
