Mind Tricks

Mind Tricks is the third full-length studio album by the Italian melodic death metal band Disarmonia Mundi, released on 12 June 2006 by Scarlet Records. Like its predecessor, this album again features Björn "Speed" Strid on vocals, but does not feature bassist Mirco Andreis, who decided to leave the band to concentrate on his career as a video clip director. Mirco directed the video for the song "Celestial Furnace", but did not appear in the video. The music of the album was written and recorded by Ettore Rigotti in 3 weeks, with all lyrics written by Claudio Ravinale in a few days.^[2] The album features a Pantera cover version of the song "Mouth for War". The Japanese release of the album includes a bonus track from a 2002 demo entitled, "Moon of Glass". The Korean release included a bonus track entitled "Chester". The cover art features a manipulated image from the 2005 film Sin City featuring actress Makenzie Vega as a young Nancy Callahan.
