Ripped to Shreds Now Streaming “孽鏡臺 (Visions of Sin, Mirror of Darkness)”
With just a few weeks remaining before the release of their forthcoming album Sanshi, Ripped to Shreds dropped a new track and accompanying lyric music video for the track “孽鏡臺 (Visions of Sin, Mirror of Darkness)”.
According to the band, the whole album pulls from a “morbid fixation on death and the afterlife in the context of traditional Chinese folklore.” Released earlier today, frontman Andrew Lee said the song was all about a piece of folklore that describes how a person is judged in the afterlife when they die.
“In the depths of hell exists a mirror, which reflects all your earthly deeds and transgressions. You can’t hide from it, deceive it, or destroy it. All are judged and accordingly damned.”
Sanshi will be released on September 27, but you can preorder your copy today.
