Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking a distinct transition for the Bristol-based project, 'Mirror' heavily integrates electronic sampling and drum-and-bass rhythms into their trademark wall of noise. Dave Pearce maneuvers away from strictly guitar-driven shoegaze, utilizing lo-fi atmospheric pop textures to construct a highly surreal, nocturnal soundscape. The album reflects the broader turn-of-the-millennium convergence of indie rock and experimental electronica.
