Michael Tierney: Wax Fang releasing ‘Mirror, Mirror,’ second full-length album

Thank the lord everyone – new Wax Fang  music is here!!!

Many extreme Wax Fang fans may recognize the new album’s title song since the band has unleashed banger “Mirror, Mirror” live a few times to my memory

“Mirror, Mirror,”  the Louisville-based band’s second full-length album, is scheduled to be released October 30.

So Louisville, get ready for a Fang-filled fall.

From Karate Body Records’ release about the new album:

Led by singer and guitarist Scott Carney’s urgent voice and narrative prowess, Mirror, Mirror is a foray into the darker portals of Wax Fang’s musical imagination, where aural feeds visual and vice versa until the two are intertwined.

“Mirror, Mirror” is a misadventure through a schizophrenic looking glass, where dysfunctional families sleep underwater and a telepathic preacher commands his congregation to raise their voices to the heavens in the name of Truth.

But we must ask … where is Kevin Ratterman?

Ratterman is not pictured in the photo included with this release and was absent from Fang’s set at Forecastle.

Has one leg of the tripod fled?

Either way, great new music from one of Louisville’s most iconic bands.

How to get “Mirror, Mirror”:

Mirror, Mirror arrives in stores Oct. 30 on digital, CD and a onetime pressing of 500 LPs (w/ download) via Karate Body/Don’t Panic, with the first 250 LP orders receiving a special edition on Coke-bottle clear wax. Pre-orders begin at www.sakistore.net on Sept. 13.
