Black Mirrors announce new album ‘Tomorrow Will Be Without Us’
BLACK MIRRORS have announced a new album!
Titled Tomorrow Will Be Without Us, the new album from the Brussels-based rock band is the long-awaited follow-up to their 2018 debut Look Into The Black Mirror. The album was produced by Alain Johannes (EAGLES OF DEATH METAL, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, ARCTIC MONKEYS, NO DOUBT) and is scheduled to be released in November this year via Napalm Records.
Speaking about the new album, the band comment, “Like all of us, we had to go through a lot during these past years. Tomorrow Will Be Without Us is our answer to all the questions we had during that time, our reflection on the ecological catastrophe we’re all witnessing, our thoughts on our consumerist society, …“ the band comments. “Writing these songs gave us the strength to go forward and to heal us, it was our catharsis. We deeply hope it will bring you some light in these dark times.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the album’s lead single Hateful Hate, I‘ll Kill You.
Speaking about the new song, the band say, “Hateful Hate, I‘ll Kill You is one of the first songs we wrote and recorded for this album. We felt the song really helped us to shape the album as it embraces a lot of different influences like NIRVANA and HOLE, but also QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, JACK WHITE and even RADIOHEAD. The song is a shout out to the bitter world we‘re living in, a shout out to our consumerist society! Our beautiful planet has its limits! We are on a sinking ship. We have left so many living beings to die, to disappear even. We need to change now more than ever – we have to change our ways.”
On the video, the band add, “The energy of Hateful Hate I‘ll Kill You video is pretty close to what you can expect from a live show of BLACK MIRRORS. Furthermore, we focused on what‘s behind the lyrics. The colors, mainly yellow and red, were used as a symbol of the burning of our forest, our planet. One of the outfits Marcella‘s wearing is a nod to the last mass extinction to warn us of the 6th mass extinction we are currently living in. At the end, she even changes into a tree to embody the return to nature.”
