Los Angeles-based thrash metallers MindWars are back with their fifth studio album, “V”. Originally self-released by the band in early 2024, it now gets its well-deserved international exposure via High Roller Records. The trio, led by Mike Alvord, guitarist and co-founder of the legendary Holy Terror, along with Italian drummer Roby Vitari and bassist Rick Zaccaro, showcases a blend of classic thrash with a wealth of killer riffs and lyrical depth. MindWars were founded in 2013. The band name, of course, refers to Holy Terror’s second album “Mind Wars” (1988), yet the project represents a new chapter for the guitarist. “I didn’t want anyone to think this was a continuation of Holy Terror,” he clarifies. “I always looked at it as an appendage or extension, and it is only natural that there are hints of Holy Terror in our music.” MindWars already garnered significant attention with their shows, opening for Raven and Mordred as well as performing at festivals such Long Live the Loud (US), Storm Crusher (Germany) or True Thrash (Japan). Looking Ahead with “V”, the group is poised to continue their journey. “I go through spurts where riffs and songs start entering into my head and have already started laying down structures for what could be new songs,”, Mike announces. “But for now, we will enjoy our new label relationship and with any luck play a tour or festival or two is in our near future.” ANDREAS SCHIFFMANN
