Single Review : “Through the Eyes of the Mirror” – Murder Sermon
Murder
Sermon return with “Through the Eyes of the Mirror,” a ferocious new
single that sets the stage for their upcoming 2026 album. Hailing from Rouen,
the French metal outfit are no strangers to intensity, but here they sharpen
their formula into something even more precise, brutal, and commanding.
The guitars
cut like blades—tranchantes and merciless—delivering riffs that swing between
pure death metal ferocity and crushing breakdowns. The drums are equally
relentless, alternating between speed-driven passages and punishing blast beats
that keep the energy surging forward without pause. It’s a barrage of sound
that never loses clarity, striking that sweet balance between chaos and
control.
At the heart of it all lies the vocals, arguably Murder Sermon’s strongest weapon. The performance moves fluidly between cavernous tunnel throats, bone-crushing lows, and shrieking highs, adding layers of texture that make the track feel alive and unpredictable. Just when the aggression seems overwhelming, the band break open the storm with a melodic guitar solo—a brief but striking moment that shows their willingness to inject nuance into the carnage.
Recorded at
Avatar Productions Studio near Rouen, the track benefits from a setting that
allows the band to experiment and refine without restraint. The result is a
song that feels organic, forged through collaboration and sharpened until every
note hits with maximum impact.
“Through
the Eyes of the Mirror” is more than just a single—it’s a statement of intent. Murder Sermon
have announced their next era, and it promises to be their heaviest yet.
