Formed end of august 2005. The band played their first gig only 7 weeks later in Nighttown, Rotterdam. A lot of shows followed. The band's released their first EP "Diagnosis" in march 2006 which has received great reviews so far!
In 2007 we've switched to 7 string guitars and a 5 string bass which made our sound a lot heavier.
Mindscan is influenced by metal, metalcore, hardcore, emo, punk. Some namedropping: Caliban, Killswitch Engage, Walls of Jericho, Heaven Shall Burn but also System of a Down, Meshuggah, Dillinger Escape Plan and many more.
Unique sound 'cause the band has 3 singers, clean, grunts, screams, in every combination.. Brutality combined with feel.
Members Mandy Struik: guitars, clean vocals and grunts Tamara Smith: bassguitars Nico Beemster: drums, clean vocals and grunts John Saarloos: guitars and clean vocals
