About Me

The Mind Control Project began as the bastard child of a few kids who just wanted to play the kind of music they wanted to hear for themselves. We've been kicking arround the idea of being some kind of "serious" band for a few years now and it seems that it may be coming to fruition in one way or another. Since the beginning, the band has mutated into a living, breathing thing that has a "mind" of its own. At any given time, The Mind Control Project consists of anywhere between 2 to 7 members, each of whom bring something different to the table.We're always looking to play shows in new places and meeting all the cool new people that come with. We've built a home studio of sorts in our practice space, and that's where we spend countless hours plotting, rehearsing for the occasional gigs, recording, evil scheming, drinking heavily, and all arround rocking the eff out.
