Irish thrash titans Psykosis are back, louder and more unhinged than ever with the announcement of their long-anticipated second album, ‘Mind Games’, which is out now. A riotous celebration of the album’s release will take place at The Grand Social in Dublin on Saturday, May 10th, with a stacked line-up of Irish metal’s most ferocious names.

Following their 2016 cult debut Welcome to the Psyko Ward, Psykosis have spent the better part of a decade honing their craft both on and off stage. From tearing up clubs and festival stages across Europe—including a savage showing at Bloodstock Open Air—to sharing bills with some of metal’s most revered names, the Dublin quartet have carved out a reputation for delivering the kind of chaos that leaves crowds sweat-soaked and grinning.

Now, ‘Mind Games’ signals the band’s long-awaited return to recorded carnage. Clocking in at eight bone-rattling tracks, the album is a white-knuckle ride through breakneck speed, snarling vocals, and groove-heavy riff worship. The first single, ‘Boiling Point’, has already ignited a firestorm among fans—offering a taste of what’s to come: raw, relentless, and unmistakably Psykosis.

The official launch show at The Grand Social, Dubliin on 10th May is shaping up to be an unmissable night for fans of Irish metal. Joining Psykosis on stage will be:
Acid Age – The Belfast-based “War Jazz” trio who’ve recently dropped one of the most blistering albums to come out of the Irish scene in years. Expect mayhem.
AeSect – One of Ireland’s tightest modern metal units, known for their crushing technicality and intensity.
Two Tales of Woe – Dublin’s doom-laden groove merchants, bringing the sludge, the riffs, and the weight.
Entry is just €10 on the door – no advance tickets. Doors open at 6:30pm, and early arrival is highly recommended, as word of this show is spreading fast.

This is more than an album launch—it’s a statement of intent. ‘Mind Games’ sees Psykosis sharpen their blade and step back into the fray, armed with their most aggressive material to date. For anyone who thrives on classic thrash energy laced with a modern punch, this is the kind of chaos you don’t want to miss.
