Ferocious, fearless, and soulful noise. Texas rocker's Smokey Mirror have said that they have dedicated themselves to spreading a gospel of scorched-earth riff worship and wild, psychedelic abandon. Check and check. They have said that their musical masterplan is to write songs that blend energetic heavy blues rock with elements of progressive and freeform styles of music. Check and check. And ultimately, they want listeners of their debut album to walk away in a sweaty, euphoric heap. And....check.
Recorded using all vintage analog equipment, the band's sound and soul is a throwback to a time when hard rock was still coming into its own and there seemed to be no rules or boundaries to what was right or wrong. Smokey Mirror is a breath of sweaty, dirty, and not very fresh air to take in. Which is just right. So sit down and strap yourself in for one of the hardest rockin' albums that you will hear this year.
