Emerging with their first demo in 2022, followed by two albums released through the esteemed Drakkar Productions, CHAMBER OF MIRRORS have swiftly cemented their place within the black metal underground. Spearheaded by the enigmatic Mortem, this project is an expression of his visiona journey through the arcane realms of black metal, where sorcery and ancient darkness converge in a storm of hypnotic, unrelenting force.
Now joining forces with IRON BONEHEAD, CHAMBER OF MIRRORS presents their most devastating work to date with Tales of Blood. This third album is an immediate and brutal assault, plunging listeners into the abyss from the very first note. Yet, to dismiss CHAMBER OF MIRRORS as a mere exercise in nonstop blastbeats would be a grave misjudgment. Mortem’s craftsmanship goes far deeper, revealing intricate layers of melody and atmosphere woven throughout the chaos. While the influence of Demonaz-era Immortal is evident in the album’s foundation, Mortem’s riffs are both monumental and elusivesimultaneously direct and distant, imbued with a melancholy and haunting quality that set CHAMBER OF MIRRORS apart. The subtle synths that permeate the music further amplify the band’s distinctive vision, cold and sharp as the icy winds from which they draw their essence.
Tales of Blood is a punishing experience, one that may be overwhelming to those unfamiliar with the nuances of 90s black metal, but for those with the fortitude, this album offers a relentless-yet-rewarding journey into the frozen realms of the past. Fans of Funeral Winds, Tsjuder, Akerbeltz, Cirith Gorgor, and even Judas Iscariot will find themselves enveloped in the cold, cruel, and cunning world of CHAMBER OF MIRRORS. Approach with cautionTales of Blood is not for the faint of heart.
