Tantric On the Road For New Mind Control


08/05/2009
.
(ABC) Tantric's fourth album, Mind Control, was released this week on the Silent Majority Group label (through Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group). Produced by Brett Hestla (Creed, Framing Hanley, Dark New Day), it's the follow-up to 2008's The End Begins, which produced the Top Five Rock hit, "Down and Out."

The album's first single, "Mind Control," is currently #34 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart, garnering spins on over 50 radio stations nationwide including, WRIF/Detroit, WRAT/New Jersey, WIIL/Chicago, WCCC/Hartford, WIYY/Baltimore, and Sirius XM's "Octane" channel. The Mason Dixon-directed video for the track also makes its world premiere today, all day, as part of MTV2's "UNLEASHED" program.

Meanwhile, the band recently started their U.S. tour along with special guests Aranda and Vayden, which includes various radio station festivals along the route.
