welcome to mirrorkill's outer discordian church of the perpetually confused
Mirrorkill are a Lancaster UK-based band, of sorts, & a religious disorganisation. (We have no prophets, though, because prophecy is theft). We do not charge for our music, because nothing you pay money for can ever be subversive. All music on this site may be downloaded & distributed freely, so long as it remains unchanged & attributed to us, & provided that you're not a corporation & you're not making any money out of it. Read the Creative Commons License under which it is published. We do, however, charge for our time in coming & performing it for you. We have often described ourselves as "Mutant Industrial Jazz Punk Monkeys", & only been approximately 50% joking, but for various reasons we have now gone entirely acoustic, rendering that definition even more hilariously inadequate than usual. Just listen to it. New For 2010 - Finally! - The New Album Is Released.
The album is about addiction, denial & guilt (but, y'know, in a fun way), both personal & social, & about plotting a course through the (latest) end of the world. It combines Mirrorkill's characteristic lyrical onslaught, sense of humour, melodic sweep & rhythmic stomp with a new primitivism of form which seems appropriate to the times at hand. We hope you enjoy it. New site 2009We used to have an all-singing, all-dancing PostNuke site that was very flash & very powerful - but it got hacked, it got cracked, it got accidentally deleted by the ISP (oh how we laughed), or it just plain fell over so many times that it had started to becoming a bit of an embarrassment, if not a liability (The lessons of Web 2.0? As someone wearily said on an anarchist site, "Nothing good ever came of allowing anonymous comments on the internet"). In addition, the rise of identikit band pages & community "social networking" sites, epitomised by MySpace, had made the old site's membership/forum/content management system stuff seem a bit redundant - so visit www.myspace.com/mirrorkill23 & add us as a friend. Frankly you'd have to seem pretty damn scary for us to say no. (& yes we know Myspace is ghastly.) This site is therefore intended to be a longer-term & more independant location for our albums & media. You can email us as mirrorkill {at} mirrorkill [dot] co (dot) uk. Regards, | |
