Internationally formed doom metal outfit Mirror have recently released their self-titled debut album on Metal Blade Records. The band have just fronted a video for the track, “Galleon” off of that album. The video is inspired by the Spanish horror film, The Ghost Galleon. The 1974 film is of the Blind Dead series of films from director/writer Amando de Ossorio. The track is a classic hard rock/doom fusion that plays well with the horror backdrop. Get a gander at the spooky video after the jump.
From The Press Release
Hailed as the “…progressive answer to retro rock…” (DeadRhetoric.com), occult heavy metal outfit Mirror has launched a new video for the track “Galleon”, which is taken from their recently released self-titled debut.

The musical brainchild of bassist Tas Danazoglou (Satan’s Wrath, ex-Electric Wizard) Mirror’s collection of cult crypt-kickers and mighty conjurings bears all the hallmarks of an instant classic. A chance meeting with respected producer (Ghost, Cathedral, Paradise Lost) and accomplished drummer Jaime Gomez Arellano led to the pair hitting on a shared vision of a classically aligned outfit that drew inspiration from the epic amplified landscapes of lore and legend whilst avoiding the lure of mere tribute, rather reinventing the sound and fury they loved anew. They were soon joined by Satan’s Wrath axeman Stamos K, and their fate further sealed by the arrival of the mightily operatic tenor of vocalist Jimmy Mavromatis, before the ouroborus was completed with the arrival of Los Angeles-based guitarist Matt Olivo (Repulsion). Together as Mirror they deliver a thunderously resonant salvo of metal magnificence.
This April, Mirror will support Repulsion at select dates in the UK. In regards to these special performances, Tas Danazoglou comments: “We are very excited to play two shows supporting Repulsion. We will deliver pure, relentless heavy metal and hopefully many more shows will follow.”
