With “Mirrorings,” you’re not only getting a track premiere from Scottish post-metal sextet Void of Light, you’re getting a full 20 percent of the their five-track debut full-length, Asymmetries. Clocking in at 10 minutes, “Mirrorings” offers a pretty solid introduction to these gloomy Glaswegians, a dynamic epic that shifts from pummeling sludge to melodic shoegaze-inspired dynacism. The three-guitar lineup—Ali Lauder (vocals), Nick Collins (guitar), Simon Mather (guitar), Marc Carey (guitar/vocals), Dan Irving (bass), Stephen Wilkinson (drums)—weaves a dense web across the sprawling, melancholy track. You practically get a full album’s worth of material in this singular composition.
Asymmetries is set for release on CD and digitally via Ripcord Records on April 3. Place your preorder here.
The band had this to say about its new single and album:
“Asymmetries is the culmination of two years of hard work and exploration. Across the album’s five tracks, we set out to shape our own sound within a well-established scene, creating something that genuinely feels like ours. The closing track, “Mirrorings,” brings the album’s introspective themes into a final, defining moment and represents what we feel is our strongest offering so far.”
