In a time when much music is written to follow trends rather than create them, a band like Mindset Defect could be considered "passionately aggressive". Drawing strength from rock and metal’s true masters and wielding a musical force that only pure talent and dedication could have honed, Mindset Defect has shattered the stereotype of what heavy music “should†be. Bringing together four musicians with lifelong experience and diverse backgrounds has molded Mindset’s eclectic style of sweeping groove and tonal aggression. From shimmering vocal melodies to total emotional assault each song represents its own complete musical journey. In less than a year Mindset Defect has strived to stand out from the sea of Nashville bands, not just with musical prowess but also with energetic live shows. With their controlled chaos style of performance they have graced the stages of Nashville’s finest venues, including the Cannery Ballroom, The Exit/In, the Gibson showcase and have branched out regionally from Murfreesboro TN, to Louisville KY, where they have earned ever growing groups of loyal fans. Mindset has performed in support of touring bands such as [Minus] Driver, Echovalve and local power houses Return to Self and Deadsun. With the release of their three-song demo CD the tides began to shift for this hard working group. Songs from the “Crisis Reborn†demo have received airplay on Nashville’s biggest rock station 102.9 The Buzz both on the local show and during afternoon drive time. With the single Tragedy recieving regular requests on the "Local Buzz" Mindset Defect earned a nomination for a 2006 "Buzzy" award for best hard rock/Metal act. Mindset Defect will also have their music featured on an upcoming Stunt motorcycle DVD sponsored by Nashvilles own Muzik Mafia. Most recently Mindset was selected to play at the Millennium Music Conference in Camp Hill, P.A. Without pause Mindset Defect has already began pre-production on their upcoming E.P. and is maintaining a healthy performance schedule.
