Eidola (Dance Gavin Dance’s Andrew Wells & Sergio Medina) Sign with 3DOT Recordings
Eidola have signed with 3DOT Recordings, the label founded by Periphery, and now home to Boundaries, Astronoid, Wiltwither, Obeyer, For Your Health, and more.
“We couldn’t be more excited to announce that Eidola has signed with 3DOT Recordings to usher in the most refined, fearless, and forward-thinking era of the band to date,” Andrew Michael Wells shares. “We’ve never felt more aligned with a new team, as 3DOT is filled with passionate, like-minded, boundary-pushing creatives who share our uncompromising vision for the future. We also want to thank Blue Swan and Rise Records for an incredible decade of growth and success, and with this new 3DOT partnership we are eager to explore what the band is truly capable of.”
Misha Mansoor, 3DOT Recordings label co-founder, adds: “When we started 3DOT our goal was to work with bands whose talent, vision, and creativity we respect and appreciate. To say we respect Eidola would be an understatement. We got to see just how great they are when we toured with them in 2024, and when the chance arose for us to sign them to the label, we jumped at it immediately. This is a huge signing for 3DOT and we’re flattered they are giving us the opportunity to bring their new songs to the world.”

Pop? Metal? Eidola’s New Album
Track 1, an epic instrumental.
Track 2, some sort of acoustic-sounding pop.
Track 3, poppy metal.
That’s Eidola’s new album, Mend. If I had to focus on some sort of musical thread, everything is definitely produced to a pop standard. There might be intensity, there might be breakdowns, screaming, but there’s pop throughout. Is that a good thing? Bad thing?
Like most music, it’s mood dependent. There’s definitely a vibe that this sort of intense pop sound fits into perfectly. An arctic cold blast, which was happening while I listened to this, might not be it, but once the sun comes out, yeah. Roll down the windows and enjoy the sun type of music. And if there’s a moment you don’t like, wait a second or two because these songs are journeys.
Almost no song begins and ends in the same tonal way. And while it’s nice to have these journeys, I’m dumb and lazy. Which means this is one of those albums that’ll have to grow on me – once it becomes predictable to my small brain, I’ll be leaving it on rotation.
HIGHLIGHTS: Look, I’m a sucker for acoustic pop music that isn’t actually acoustic pop. I don’t care about your baby baby baby, k? In saying that, obviously Prodigy is one of the highlights. Because it’s acoustic pop vibe without actually being acoustic pop. Blood In The Water has a some nice ear candy. The Faustian Spirit has some much wanted intensity.
LOWLIGHTS: Not exactly a song, but a style – all the songs take seemingly forever to get to the point. Like, they’re pop produced, but don’t follow the pop rule of “chorus in 30 seconds or bust”. No matter how intense the songs are, no matter the overall vibe they’re attempting, it takes a while to get there, and I’m finding myself impatient and not wanting to wait. Maybe that’s why Prodigy is my favourite – you get what you get from the first second.
Eidola Release New Album, Mend
Eidola, the Salt Lake City-based progressive post-hardcore band, have released their new album, Mend, via Blue Swan Records/Rise Records (listen here).
Accompanying the arrival of Mend is a lyric video for “Revelation: The Infinite Beauty of Oneness,” which can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/F46JLnDtiE8.
Andrew Michael Wells, who also serves as Dance Gavin Dance’s clean vocalist, and shares the distinction of being a member of both bands with guitar player Sergio Medina, says of the collection: “We are incredibly excited for the release of Mend. We’ve spent the last 18 months meticulously crafting what we believe is our best work as a band. Eviscerate and Mend encapsulate the finality of everything we’ve wanted to express in our decade plus of making music together, from the lyrical themes to the sonic territory we explored, this double album captures the most honest and diverse elements of Eidola in its entirety. Our effort was to create something truly timeless and we believe we’ve accomplished that here. We hope this album takes listeners on a journey of the soul and causes them to take pause in the chaos of modernity, look inward, and seek a greater understanding of all things in totality.”
The 13-song collection marks the band’s second full-length release in just nine months, with Mend serving as a brighter counterpoint to the darker 2024 collection, Eviscerate. While Eviscerate delved into themes of loss, grief, and despair, Mend embraces redemption and healing. This powerful duality, balancing light and dark, represents the band’s exploration of the human condition in all of its complexity.
Mend is available now: https://eidola.lnk.to/Mend. The album was produced by Stephan Hawkes (Chelsea Grin, American Me) and recorded in North Hollywood, Calif.

Rating: 6/10
I've heard this album floated around as AOTY by several folks, and I've given it a good 6-7 listens, trying to figure out what I'm missing. Look, it's a decent album. But you can take any element of it and point to other bands doing it slightly better ...
