New Zealand hardcore crew Advocates have released their 8-track debut mini album entitled Mindless via Ghost Music. If you’ve recently seen We Came as Romans, Dream on Dreamer or Saving Grace on tour then you might recognise these guys and their distinct mix of tech metal with pummelling groove.
Advocates formed in 2009 and, like any well-deserving band, climbed the ladder of fame through hard work and determination. They built a considerable reputation for themselves as a local act in their hometown of Auckland gaining support slots with every established act that passed through their area. Now with the first major release of their own, they are ready to take on the world one continent at a time.
2013 will be a big year for Advocates as they begin a New Zealand and Australia tour before hitting Europe for a tour and festival appearances in support of their as of yet untitled debut record which is due in spring.
