Duncan Evans and Wilderness Hymnal to release split album - @thebeast

DUNCAN EVANS (ex-A Forest of Stars) and WILDERNESS HYMNAL are pleased to announce that they will release their split album Until Liars Fear You on November 5th 2021 via Trepanation Recordings. Javier from WILDERNESS HYMNAL commented "Though our music is quite different in some ways, I’ve found in Duncan a great friend, collaborator and patient taskmaster! He originally invited me to make an electronic record, but as often happens, some songs fell away and others developed differently than first intended. I like to experiment with production, but here my main goal was to make sure that the songs themselves were solid first, and after that try to get out of the way and let songs be what they wanted to be. Which often had nothing to do with what I had planned" Duncan also commented:  "The seed of the concept for this record first came about when I was working on the synth-based music to a production of Jean-Paul Sartre’s No Exit. Inspired by this creative process, I started working on a handful of songs using electronic sounds as the basis. Around that time, Javier invited me to collaborate with him on a song. I liked his approach to melody, lyrics and production, and I found it refreshing to collaborate with him, so I in turn asked Javier if he would want to work on a split release which would also allow us to include our collaborative song, ‘Three Tempers’. I have greatly enjoyed the twists and turns of building this record and the collaboration and friendship with Javier." More information will be available soon.

Check out the interview on Spotify: Check out the interview on YouTube: Check out the interview on Apple iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-zach-moonshine-show/id1533618474 In 1994, four friends got together and decided they wanted to entertain the world. They decided to name their band ' State Of Mind' ( SOM ) because that is what music is to them, a State of Mind . Their influences are old school metal gods such as, Ronnie James Dio , Judas Priest , Black Sabbath , Queensryche , Iron Maiden , Pantera , Led Zeppelin etc.  The music is hard hitting and described as New Classic Metal . With the flavor of their influences guiding their way. The lyrics are written to describe ones State of Mind in any given situation, and to give those feelings an outlet other than addiction or suicide. They have lost two band members to addiction that resulted in death. RIP Scott and Brett. They put out their first studio recording in 1995. A six song, self titled cassette recorded on the only ADAT machine in their area at that time. The latest CD was released in 2019 along with a music video released in Dec 2019. They are now composing new music for their second CD which will be titled “ Shattered ”, and working on another music video. Add them to your playlists on Spotify! Check them out on YouTube!
