Heavy Metal

Formed 1990 in Stuttgart, Germany, MIRROR OF DECEPTION are one of the longest running and most prominent European Doom Metal bands. Initially, the band was inspired by the forefathers of the genre such as SABBATH, CANDLEMASS, ST. VITUS, TROUBLE etc., but over the years they have created their own niche, shaping their own unmistakable style. Channelling grass roots HEAVINESS through dark winter melancholy and despair, MIRROR OF DECEPTION write their own rules far away from clichés often (and falsely) associated with classic Doom Metal such as one dimensional tempos and recycled SABBATH lyrics.
Band/artist history
