Episode #267 - Curse at 10: Mastermind

This week we continue our track-by-track exploration of Night Demon's debut album, Curse of the Damned, on the occasion of its tenth anniversary by digging into the song "Mastermind." A rock/metal hybrid with a distinctive swing and a positive message, "Mastermind" is unique in the Night Demon catalog in multiple ways. You will hear about how the band were influenced to write this song, how and why it came late to the Curse writing sessions, the origins of various parts of the song, and its evolution from early demos to final recording to the live version they play today. Special attention is paid to the lyrical content, what Jarvis's inspiration was, why this message is important to him, and how it can have practical application to your daily life and mental outlook.
