Mirror Queen’s Scaffolds of the Sky Due April 21

I’m not sure if the song below is “Scaffolds of the Sky,” like the album title of Mirror Queen‘s forthcoming long-player due out April 21 on Tee Pee, or if it’s “Scaffold of the Skies,” which is what the track is listed at on the Soundcloud player, but it’s probably more important to take away the album’s release date anyhow. That was April 21, if you missed it, and since it’s the same day Tee Pee is releasing the new The Atomic Bitchwax record, Mirror Queen are in good company. I’ve seen the NYC four-piece play some excellent gigs since their 2011 debut, From Earth Below, was released — as well as seen them have a couple lineup changes — and the new cut, whatever you might want to call it, only makes the prospect of the album from which it comes more intriguing.

MIRROR QUEEN to Release New Album Scaffolds of the Sky April 21

NYC Volume Dealers Take Guitar Rock by Force with Ominously Titled New LP

New York City’s MIRROR QUEEN will release its new album Scaffolds of the Sky on April 21 via Tee Pee Records. The follow-up to the band’s 2011 LP, From Earth Below, Scaffolds of the Sky was recorded in front of a wall of Marshall amplifiers at Momek Studios in Brooklyn, and was mastered by Jeff Lipton at Peerless Mastering (Roky Erickson, Big Star). A mainstay in the NYC hard rock scene, MIRROR QUEEN has shared the stage with heavyweight peers such as Earthless and The Shrine and toured Europe with legends such as Uli Jon Roth and UFO.

Scaffolds of the Sky is available for pre-order purchase now at this location.

MIRROR QUEEN’s driving music accelerates at the distinct point where NWOBHM and heavy Prog Rock intersect; a direct and definite delineation of an era when urgent metallic sound was the order of the day. MIRROR QUEEN’s twin-guitar harmonies and rhythmic gallop? recall early Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, while its hook-laden, timeless riffs and instrumental fireworks reference cherished champions UFO, Blue Öyster Cult and Captain Beyond. Scaffolds of the Sky is a modern day collection of laser-focused, lights out songs that carry the listener across a myriad of musical thresholds, each at once, time-honored and top-notch.

Scaffolds of the Sky track listing:

1.) Scaffolds of the Sky
2.) Quarantined
3.) Strangers in Our Own Time
4.) Vagabondage
5.) At the Borderline at the Edge of Time
6.) Dark Ships Arrived
7.) Wings Wetted Down
