Background
When the last remaining founding members of Extol, Vocalist Peter Espevoll and Drummer David Husvik, decided to end the band in 2007, the remaining members, John Mjaaland, Tor Glidje, Ole Sveen, who had previously played together in Lengsel and Ganglion, decided to continue the already in-progress songwriting process and change the name of the band to Mantric. Husvik was also apart of the first lineup. but eventually left.
The band was signed to Prosthetic Records and released their debut album, The Descent in 2010. The album has received generally positive reviews including 8 out of 10 scores from both Metal Hammer and Decibel. Mantric has since played a handful of shows and festivals in Europe and are currently demoing material for their next album. In 2015, the band released a new song and announced two releases, an EP and a Studio album. In 2015, the band released their sophomore album entitled, Sin, which was well received. The album was said to be of various sounds, mainly progressive metal, but also post metal, death metal, and black metal.
