Mantric recently signed to Norwegian record label Loyal Blood Records & will release the new 3 song “Die Old” EP on June 19th. A new track can be streamed at metalsucks. Vocalist Ole Sveen has the following to say:
‘We know you’ve been waiting five long years…and so have we. But here – finally – new material from Mantric! We’re happy to announce that we have signed a deal with Bergen’s hardcore-pride Loyal Blood Records, where they know what it’s like making music with your heart, and not your ego nor your greedy wallet. Later this year, they’ll give you the whole album, but first you’ll get the three-song ep “Die Old”. Slightly more poppy than most of the album, you’ll get the catchy rock-oriented title-track, a 70s progrock track and a coversong of the Cardigans. Hints of both Swervedriver, Landberk, Lenny Kravitz, Led Zeppelin and harder rock might be found here, in just three tracks. If you don’t want to wait until June 19th to hear it, order one of these new Mantric shirts NOW and get the ep download instantly https://www.dizzyjam.com/products/67444/ & https://www.dizzyjam.com/products/67438/ .
