Chamber Of Mirrors are a solo project from Searles Valley, California that plays a very raw and atmospheric form of occult black metal and this is a review of his 2022 demo "Apocalyptic Dream" which will be released on April 15th by Humanity's Plague Productions.
A synth orientated intro starts off the demo before going into a heavier direction and also introducing raw tremolo picking onto the recording. Vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams while the music also has its atmospheric moments and synths also make a return return on the later songs.
Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while blast beats can also be heard when the music speeds up. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the songs also showing influences from both the old school and modern era's of the genre.
Chamber of Mirrors plays a style of occult black metal that is very raw, atmospheric and traditional sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover occultism, mythology and anti Christianity themes.
In my opinion Chamber Of Mirrors are a very great sounding raw and atmospheric occult black metal solo project and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this demo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Bed Of Thorns" and "Voice From The Distant Winds". 8 out of 10.
