Chicago's miirrors_music marks its new release MotionandPicture, a debut album of haunting melodies, pensive lyrics and powerful rock
"Motion and Picture," the newly released debut album from Chicago band MIIRRORS, first drifts onto the soundscape like a ghost, singer Brian McSweeney's ethereal vocals tracing a haunting melody in the delicate opening track"Parallax." But as the song builds to its climax, seamlessly introducing a blend of rock elements into a growing wall of sound, it showcases the power behind this band.
"Motion and Picture" touches on feelings and themes across the spectrum -- resolve, moving on, religion and mortality, hope and self-delusion. The lead single "Where Do We Go?" released in late February asks a question the band -- McSweeney, Rios, Dmitri Rakhuba and Patrick Riley and Andre Miller originally from the Northwest suburbs -- found itself pondering.
"It was pretty much knocking me out, you know how you listen to something a million times in a row when you discover something you're really excited about? And Shawn was sitting in front of me. There's nobody else around us. And I just thought this guy looks like he's probably a musician, he'll probably like this," McSweeney said."I tapped him on the shoulder and asked him if he wanted to hear it. I gave him my Discman, and we just became friends.
The musical interplay between all five members of the band results in a powerful, cohesive collection on the new album, but it's the strong friendship between the two founders that makes the dynamic gel.
