We’re both happy and sorry to inform that the first deluxe digipack edition of MANTIIS has sold out just this week. We don’t know when or if it will ever be back on sale, so congratulations to all the lucky owners of a copy!
Here are some pictures from our performance at Headway Festival 2013, courtesy of Inside the City of Glass Photography.
We are finally back from the sixth edition of Headway Festival, where we’ve had one of the best experiences in the history of the band so far.
In the meantime, we would like to take this occasion to greet and thank everyone who made this possible and who made our trip to the Netherlands so enjoyable; namely Onno, Freek and the P60 crew for their incredible professionality and amazing job at organizing the festival; Leprous for the great aftershow chat in the backstage; Freak Kitchen for touching our beards in the pictures; Dave Lombardo & PHILM for the Latin connection; Pigeon Toe, Oddland and Trip Trigger for their great attitude and performances; and of course everybody who came to the festival, especially those who witnessed our show and came to greet us at the merch post. You absolutely made our day!
See you all on the stage again and long live HEADWAY Festival!

Angelo Badalamenti, Ulver and Antoni Gaudí; that’s what they say about MANTIIS in the latest Terrorizer issue! You will also find our song Ball-Room featured at their sampler CD, go get it now!

Signal. Delay. Feedback. Synthesis. Improvisation. All at once.
Droning is such a blast. You’ll get to see and hear it soon.

The Obsidian Kingdom Drone Set will make another appearance next monday, February 25th, at City Hall – Barcelona. We’ll perform at the Noches Sinestésicas Cicle along with Pytra Oyster and Miss Q.
Our special guest will be Hugo, the sax player.
It will be a night full of experimentation where no boundaries will remain intact – you can join the event for free admission, so you have no excuse!
