Canadian demolition thrash crew Mutank will be unravelling their newest collection of bangers and first taste of new neck-breaking tunes in seven years with their new album Think Before You Think once again on Boonsdale Records on November 29, 2024 to follow 2017's EP W.H.A.T.S.T.H.A.T.

Featuring ten volcanic thrash tracks to blaze a new path to jackhammer a pure audio assault. Live favourites such as "Running Reds", "Abortron", and "Thrash Primordial" are sure to please die-hard fans for easy repeat listens.

"This is thrash for Metalheads by Metalheads we evolved from crossover to a more refined thrash band with longer and more intricate songs… The level of seriousness in songwriting is evident in the new album. We want this album to energize people and make them feel the way we do when we listen to some of our favourite artists. This album is the most material we have ever put out! 50 minutes of pure metal across ten tracks. The songs picked themselves as we kept writing tracks we enjoyed playing.”

Today, Mutank is ready to unveil their album opener and psychedelic monster brigade video "Illuminatus" exclusively through BraveWords! 

The band explains further:

"This intro track sets the tone for the album with its strong riffs and songwriting to continue the Mutank tradition of elaborate riffs and ripping solos! Lyrically Illuminatus (which gets its title from the 1975 novel) is about power and how it takes the souls of those that desire it the most.”

With a passion for classic thrash and a desire to play radical riffs, Mutank made a deservedly big splash on the Canadian metal scene with their debut EP M.E.C.H METAL and a performance at Wacken Open Air after being declared champions of the 2014 Wacken Metal Battle Canada competition.

2024 will be a tour de force for Mutank with the launch of Think Before You Think. Fans of D.R.I., Suicidal Tendencies, Havok, Megadeth, Overkill, and Exodus are sure to join them in the pit when it hits the shelves.
