Presence of Mind Presence of Mind skillfully mixes melancholy melody and energy. Shoutings at the right time and a voice that can be vulnerable, full of energy and dark in the next moment leaves a feeling of melancholy and strenght of live. Here is an abridgement from ``Alternative Nation´´: „In the Emocore -rock-Genre was just all things said, but anyhow the four ladies can absolutly assure. Technically they are adept, the songwritting is very varied and figured out, the sound is fat-everything is better than many productions made with a better budget. Besides there is the cracking good voice of Sarah Steinbrecher which shallbound all melodies and goes with more volume than the most frontmans-and-womans, who are soo announced in the Genre. Whether Half-ballads like 'Stupiefed' or straight Rock-Songs like 'Leap in the Dark', every Song gets his special mark by the singing.“ Live the listener can expect a lot from Presence of Mind:Surprising, energetic and exiting are the shows with its emotionality and energy which leaves no one unaffected. In general you can discribe the albums as emo-rock. It is impressed by a time of changes. The songs are about estrangement, identification and friendship which are followed by experiences of loss and new feelings, which are discribed well by the title „finding home“. Shoutings at the right time and a voice that can be vulnerable and full of energy the next moment gives a feeling full of melancholy and strengh of life.The whole Songwriting is made by the Band itself. After the Band had played their fingers bloody during the concerts in the last years, Presence of Mind are always on the way to promote their Set live.
