London based Third Mind Records is one of the fastest expanding independent record companies in the world today. Launched almost a decade ago and still run by company boss Gary Levermore, Third Mind's first releases in 1983 were the ground breaking cassette compilation series `Rising from the Red Sand', featuring early work from the likes of Test Dept., Legendary Pink Dots, Nurse With Wound and many more.
Over the next few years, releasing records by artists such as ATTRITION, BUSHIDO, BILL PRITCHARD, BEAUTIFUL PEA GREEN BOAT and HEAVENLY BODIES, Third Mind's reputation grew and its profile increased, but it was with the signing of FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY in 1988 that the label gained a true flagship act. Their ensuing success helped to further establish Third Mind Records and led to the signing of other artists such as IN THE NURSERY.
In the summer of 1991 the company entered into a partnership with Roadrunner Records, a New York based collective of several labels, including the Emergo, Roadracer and RC imprints. Since that time, the new arrangement has spawned the release of works by Front Line Assembly, Controlled Bleeding, In The Nursery, Eden, Will, Edward Ka-Spel, Solar Enemy and F.L.A. side projects Intermix and Delerium.
The coupling of Third Mind's brilliant artist roster with Roadrunner's marketing expertise promises much for the future of this visionary musical entity
