120 Minds

Our Story

120 Minds is an oriental psychedelic rock band from Germany, combining progressive structures, heavy riffs and Eastern musical influences.

The band consists of Kamran Inaiat on vocals and guitar, Daniel Schäfer on bass and Steven Glab on drums. Founded by Kamran in 2014, 120 Minds has developed its distinctive sound through more than a decade of musical collaboration between Kamran and Steven. Daniel joined the band in 2020, succeeding longtime member and friend Ferhat Catay and completing the trio as it exists today.

In February 2020, 120 Minds released their debut album, Sound of Origin. Since then, Kamran, Daniel and Steven have continued to develop their shared musical language, bringing together psychedelic soundscapes, atmospheric oriental elements, progressive passages and hard-hitting riffs.

Their music moves between hypnotic depth, raw energy and intricate structures, shaped by the individual influences and playing styles of all three members.
