Mechanics Of The Mind was formed in 2013, as the brainchild of bass player songwriter / lyricist Terry Scott, and lead guitarist Tony Linhares. Terry, saw the same cookie cutter style, of Rock / Metal, and felt that music was losing a creative element, as it seems so many band’s sound the same, or want to sound like this or like that, decidedly, Terry and Tony took an organic approach, to create something different and unique with a fresh new sound. The duo, were joined by Forest White on drums and Michael Reardon on vocals, and Dave Porter added as rhythm guitarist. In 2015, the band released the single ‘Rubber Bullets’. This song was chosen by The Akademia Music Awards, in Los Angeles California as 2015 best hard rock song. This opened new doors for the band, as Internet radio stations started playing the song, including Sirius Satellite Radio. In, 2018, the band decided it was time to go into the studio and start recording a full length album. It was during this time, Jesse Flint, would replace Michael on vocals, the band entered the studio and the recordings began. One year later the new album titled Reckless & Divided was proudly released on March 31 2019. In the end of 2019, Forest White, moved out of state, he was replaced by Riley Kovac, a short time later rhythm guitarist Dave Porter left the band, to pursue his own company, Dave was then replaced by Nate Garduno, Determined, to do this the right way, and to stay focused, the band knew the only way this was going to work would be having a positive outlook and attitude as individuals, that want to push to achieve the same goals, so that all involved complete the chemistry of whom, and what Mechanics Of The Mind is all about. We are confident that you will be hearing more about Mechanics Of The Mind, and the doors that will open, please enjoy our new album ‘Reckless & Divided’.
