Single "Everything's Great" von MENTALLY BLIND / Debüt "Stage: Zero" am 10. Februar

MENTALLY BLIND haben mit "Everything's Great" ihre neue Single veröffentlicht. Das Debütalbum "Stage: Zero" der polnischen Band erscheint am 10. Februar.

Die Band sagt zu "Everything´s Great":

"We are used to comforting each other by saying “Don’t worry, everything will be fine”. Sadly, pushing our troubles away like that only makes them worse. Instead of trying to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes we rather pat them on the back. This is just easier but who isn’t fed up with it though? 

The song touches on the subject of mental illnesses that can never be fully grasped by a sane and healthy person. Their vision of reality is quite different.
When depression hits, it makes you hate different aspects of your own life, struggle to get out of bed, and at the same time it requires you to cope with being judged by these people, based on their own perception of the world. 

You start to feel like a useless, socially disrupted being, that has no chance of meeting the omnipresent social standards, which doesn’t make it easier 

The chorus is addressed to those who never had enough empathy to even try to understand a mentally ill person and their deformed vision of reality."

Death Metal, Thrash Metal, Black Metal: immer gerne. Kann ich den ganzen Tag hören. Die störrische Art, unpolitisch sein zu wollen, nervt mich aber an der Metalszene – dabei ist doch alles politisch, auch Schweigen. Für Musik mit Haltung zieht es mich immer wieder zum Punk, vor allem zu melodischem US-Punk und Riot-Grrrl-Sound. Gleichzeitig habe ich einen sweet spot für 80er-Hair-Metal und für vieles, was mich in den 90ern musikalisch sozialisiert hat.
