Last month, the special edition version of MINDCAGE’s new album, Our Own Devices, was released worldwide via Aetherwax on Amazon, iTunes, and other digital retailers. Today, PureGrainAudio.com has teamed up with the band to premiere the brand new lyric video for the track ‘The Navigator’s Hymn’, which is cut from Our Own Devices.

The special edition of Our Own Devices was mixed by triple-platinum and legendary producer Michael Wagener (Ozzy Osbourne, Accept, Megadeth, Alice Cooper, Helloween) at his acclaimed WireWorld Studio just outside of Nashville. The original version of Our Own Devices was produced by the band’s founder/guitarist Dietrick Hardwick. Michael Wagener recorded and produced the vocal and guitar solo performances as well as the mixing and pre-mastering of the album.
The special edition of Our Own Devices features two new songs entirely recorded, produced and mixed by Michael Wagener, and engineered by his rising star engineer/assistant Gena Johnson. Gena also contributed the hauntingly seductive “sirens call” femme vocals on the new track ‘The Coming Storm’.
The Our Own Devices special edition version follows the original album’s engaging storyline, inspired by the fiction of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne. The record introduces the world to the character of Arabella Vash, a young woman who uses the power of her dreams to transform the dystopian world she inhabits. As her intuition and dreams become vivid, a growing connection from a rebel faction outside the city walls becomes all too real.
The special edition sets the stage perfectly for the band’s upcoming second installment in the trilogy story, which is based on Hardwick’s upcoming prophetic Sci-fi Earthchime books.
MINDCAGE puts a fresh, conceptual spin on an internationally-embraced classic heavy metal sound, originally established by artists like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. Not unlike the aforementioned groups,MINDCAGE serves up a potent blend of heavy melodies mixed with progressive influences à la Rush, but offers a unique steampunk twist to the theme of the music.
