Mortuary Drape - Black Mirror

THE LATEST, LONG-AWAITED FULL STUDIO ALBUM OF BLACKENED OCCULT HEAVY METAL FROM THE ITALIAN LEGENDS - PRESENTED ON CD AND GREY VINYL LP FORMAT.

Cult band Mortuary Drape was formed in Italy in 1986 as a trio, including the long-standing/sole-remaining member, band founder & visionary Wildness Perversion. Highly inspired by the dark arts & combining early influences from bands such as Mercyful Fate & Celtic Frost, Mortuary Drape developed their own unique style, defining themselves as black occult metal & releasing the demo 'Necromancy' in 1987 which spread their name throughout the underground; though it was not until 1992 that their first official release surfaced, with 'Into The Drape'. This was followed by the debut full-length album, the classic 'All The Witches Dance' in 1994. Since then, Mortuary Drape has been revered for their influential & pioneering work in the firm establishment of global black metal.

A further progression from the 2022 mini-album 'Wisdom - Vibration - Repent', which gave a firm taste of what was to come after signing with Peaceville Records, the Italians return with 'Black Mirror' for a new dose of ritualistic blasphemy. 'Black Mirror' is Mortuary Drape's sixth full-length studio album & presents a spellbinding, occult-draped journey featuring haunting passages & dark yet melodic vintage metal mastery, bringing to mind acts such as Mercyful Fate with their eerie, classic metal-rooted compositions & atmospherics, expertly crafted & delivered with the band's own distinguishable injection of wicked intent.
