The Myrrors to Release Burning Circles in the Sky on Jan. 1

Posted in Whathaveyou on December 26th, 2013 by JJ Koczan

True, 2013’s just about over, but as we start to look ahead to 2014, there’s a ton of cool stuff coming and this reissue of Arizona outfit The Myrrors‘ 2008 debut, Burning Circles in the Sky, seems to be first in line. I’ll admit to not knowing much about the desert-psych wanderers prior to getting word of the impending Rewolfed Gloom Records vinyl, but the album has the kind of open-spaced vibe that’s perfect for imagining vast sands and the arm of the Milky Way dividing a night sky. Goes without saying, but I dig it.

Here’s word of the release with the Bandcamp stream. Check out the record and see if you dig it. Interesting that it’s half a decade old, since if you told me it was recorded in September I’d probably still call it forward thinking:

The Myrrors – Burning Circles In The Sky (LP)

File Under: Heavy Psych / Desert Rock

We proudly present the first release on “Rewolfed Gloom Records”; THE MYRRORS! Merlins Nose’ new sublabel Rewolfed Gloom Records is dedicated to Heavy Psychedelia / Desert Rock / Stoner / Space Rock / Jam / Experimental etc.

The official releasedate is 01.01.2014. Coloured copies (limited to 100) are almost gone, but a handfull is still available for dealers. First come, first served! Orders will be processed on 01.01.2014!

Comes in a 350gsm Gatefold and on 180g vinyl! The desert lives and within it a few wild creatures, some of them are rock-musicians if it happens to work out geographically just as it does with the Phoenix / Arizona based outfit THE MYRRORS. And the desert with it’s supernatural, magical atmosphere was a huge influence on the four teenagers along with all kinds of psychedelic rock, Arabian, Latin American, Turkish and Indian folk music and mind bending free-jazz. And therefore the music sounds like a journey into the deep solitude of the desert in peace with oneself but still boiling and simmering hot, engrossedly floating fraught with visions and ghostly hallucinations from a strange world., even sometimes like taking a stroll in the garden of Eden.

The stereoscopic, vivid and sometimes washy sound brings a trance like mood. Desert sounds like a cricket’s chirring and spiritual chants, as to be found in the long track „Mother of all living“ intensify the hypnotic effect further on. The band formed by high school friends in 2005 recorded it’s only album in 2008 with rather elementary equipment and prepared the privately released Cdr in manual labour not long before falling apart due to the usual reasons such as work and studies. The incredible success of their peace anthem „War paintings“ as Youtube clip came after the break and posthumously brought the band well deserved publicity and appreciation, what conserves their music for all fans of psychedelic desert rock and smoothes the way for a reissue in an adequate sound carrier format.
