ON ITUNES!!
It’s not very often that a local band transcends genres
effortlessly. Often times a band seems to sound like a mini offspring
of a band you'll hear on the radio. Tripmynd has managed to cross
melodic and metal in a way quite different from their musical predecessors. One moment you may hear them cranking out a massive metal riff, and the next they could be rocking an anti-ballad. The end result is something you’ll have to hear to believe. Tripmynd was formed in early 2007 with the desire to create a high energy sound and get away from the "repetitive" music often heard in the local Boston scene. The band started with old friends Andy Antczak & Marc Pugliese reuniting after their former "Instill" project, years earlier. Upon plugging in & playing for the first time in years, they knew they found something different. Vocalist Joe Boccelli, of the local hard rock heavyweight Visional, auditioned and was gladly accepted into the fold. The newest member drummer Nick Alenskis joined Tripmynd in June 2008 & impressed the band with his jazzy/rock-like beats and eagerness to learn so quickly.
Within no time the first dozen songs for Tripmynd’s freshman release were completed and the album was release in March 2008. With the lineup solidified the band continues to write new music in hopes to re-enter the studio in 2009.The band continues to turn heads when playing venues & leaves an impression in people’s minds. Whether it is the beautiful melodies of the anti-ballad “Sunless†or the searing shred riffs of “Insurmountableâ€, Tripmynd is starting to make their mark on the local music scene. They hope to do a small tour in support of "Threshold" in 2008 & hope to spread the word of what Tripmynd is all about. Without fans there is no music, and they never forget that!!
