Mantric's The Descent fuses a unique, distinctly Scandinavian take on rich, challenging metal and modern punk with a powerful progressive edge. The Descent was recorded in Norway, and had the legendary Tue Madsen (THE HAUNTED, DARK TRANQUILLITY, HIMSA) handling mixing and mastering duties.
Mantric's vocalist and guitarist Ole Sveen commented, "Our first album using the Mantric-name does to our ears deserve to get out to lovers of hard music all over the world. Our music embraces creativity and originality outside the limits of narrow genres...This is a release that is both accessible and original, catchy and complex at the same time, and we can't wait to get it out!"
Mantric will showcase The Descent with a selection of gigs across Norway around the release date before embarking on UK, European and North American tours to support the album throughout 2010.
