Bell Witch - Reveal New Album Cover And Tracklist
American funeral doomsters Bell Witch have revealed the details for their upcoming third full length album which is titled Mirror Reaper and is to be out on 20th October 2017. The news was revealed by the band's label Profound Lore Records which said the album will be a single 83-minute track.
The band added: "The title Mirror Reaper is indicative of the Hermetic axiom 'As Above, So Below,' written with two sides to form one whole. The song is both its own and its reflection, as an opposite is whole only with its contrary. Our focus as a band has always been the perception of ghosts and the implied archetype of the dichotomy of life/death therein. Mirror Reaper is a continuation of that concept.
"During the writing process we were devastated by the loss of our dear friend and former drummer, Adrian Guerra. In love and respect to his memory, we reserved an important yet brief section in the song for him that features unused vocal tracks from our last album. This specific movement serves as a conceptual turn in the piece, or point of reflection. We believe he would be proud of it as well.
"Mirror Reaper was the first collaborative writing project with the new line up, and Adrian's death during it brought extra emotional weight. We sought to match the complexity and weight of these events within the composition of the piece."
The album was recorded at Hallowed Halls in Portland, Oregon, mixed by Billy Anderson at Everything Hz in Portland, Oregon and features artwork by Mariusz Lewandowski. You can pre-order the album in any of the three available formats over here.
