What the label says:
Brooklyn-based Mirror Mirror has earned a reputation for its curious blend of music and performance, as well as its polymorphous membership. Chief songwriters David Riley and Ryan Lucero met in 2003 and quickly recruited percussionist Matt Bagdanoff, guitarist Jill Kaufman, and a rotating cast of friends, performers and guest musicians. Their unpredictable live shows incorporate theater, visual art, video, design, and even food. MM has played sold-out shows at rock venues and clubs, as well as site-specific shows at galleries and art spaces, where they have been known to construct mazes, offer massages to strangers and lead their devoted followers in song. The Society for the Advancement of Inflammatory Consciousness was born, and claimed as its goal nothing less than "Cosmic Erotic Ecstasy". Mirror Mirror's first full length album (on Cochon Records) is a schizophrenic exploration into the multiple personalities and points of views of the (fictional?) Society, as well as aspiring followers, runaways, hustlers, partygoers, and music producers. The compositions are lush and complex, blending folky sing-alongs, sinister rock songs, cult lullabies, robotic choral pieces, and meditative interludes. Ultimately, the album raises more questions than it answers: Are these people real or imaginary? Are they visionaries or are deluded? Capitalizing on the tension between devotion and terror, Mirror Mirror narrate the rise and fall of a utopia… In the past few years, MM has played shows around NYC, LA, Paris and Miami, with bands like Get Hustle, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Japanther, Aleks and the Drummer, Lansing Dreiden and Telepathe (in which Ryan is also the guitarist).
