Czech progressive death metal band Mindwork return with Adrift, their first full-length album since Eterea (2012). Formed in 2007, the band built a reputation through albums that earned two Czech Anděl Award nominations before resurfacing in 2021 with the EP Cortex. Adrift marks the next chapter for the current line-up.
Conceived as a concept album about Alzheimer's disease, Adrift follows the gradual loss of memory, identity and perception. Across nine tracks, Mindwork combine progressive death metal with atmospheric passages while exploring the psychological effects of the disease. The album also includes a reinterpretation of Talk Talk's "The Party's Over".
Throughout their career, Mindwork have shared the stage with bands including Cynic, Nocturnus and Suffocation, and have appeared four times at Brutal Assault. Both Into The Swirl and Eterea were later released in the United States through DiveBomb Records.
