Best Band From Long Island..........2006-09-17

By far the best and most revolutionary band from long island, ny...

The story of how everything came down.......2005-03-21

Before Refused, The Mars Volta and Muse reintroduced the world to progressive rock records there was Mind Over Matter's "Automanipulation".
The siren song from this Long Island Quintet is their finest recording and one of the best offerings from the East coast HC scene. The album is a true progression from 1994's "Security" where the band showcased their ability to play traditional east coast styled HC. Where Quicksand and Burn exemplifeid that style of HC, "Automanipulation" tapped into the true potential of the genre and gave us our first true glimpse of the shape of punk to come.
George's stellar vocals and John's expert drumming served to create textured landscapes for the listener at a time when HC was still more about the message than the sound. The album's opening track "virus" curves and winds its way through several minutes of crashing, almost anthemic verses, then gives way to a barely audible breakdown and George's warning that there is a virus among us. How right he was.
This was to be Mind Over Matter's final recording. John was already the drummer for NY hatecore heroes Neglect and George moved on to work with members of Quicksand in World's Fastest Car (I think that was their name, they only played 6 or 7 shows) as well as front the band "Day in the Life".
If you enjoyed "The Shape of Punk to Come" by Refused or even Snapcase's "End Transmission" pick this up. Also look for Neglect's "Four years of hate" double disc for more of John's work.
