Mechanical Moth : Mirrors - 2xCD
Ref: 22547
Mechanical Moth almost approach their twentieth band anniversary, and on their seventh album Mirrors, they reflect their musical and personal development of the last years. Striving to create an innovative, yet familiar dark-electronic record, the band line-up has changed into a duo project as well. Ivy, who has provided lead vocals for the Rebirth album before, returned for Mirrors. Her multi-creativity and unconventional, soulful voice offers Mechanical Moth a solidly dark, yet progressive timbre. Mirrors is a conceptual double album; the songs are interpreted in a male electro and female dark wave version each. The different versions offer a parallel listening experience following the tracklist and illustrate the various facets of the record through their vocal and instrumental diversity. Aside from the usual combination of sustained and delicate melodies, this record offers high-energy dancefloor fillers featuring prominent synths and rhythms as well. The Moth has matured stylistically and yet stayed true to itself. In that sense Mirrors also reflects the inner dichotomy between memories, future, familiar motions, and new beginnings.
