Album Notes

Mountain Mirrors began in a voodoo-riddled mountainside catacomb in the year 2004.

There, in the pitch-black darkness, fugitive Jeff Sanders experienced a life-changing vision quest...full of beautiful demonic sirens, three-breasted cyclops oracles and small, cuddly animals.

Tripping balls from an evil concoction of sensory deprivation and menacing curse vibrations, the Sandman carved the lyrics and music that would become the foundation for the first MM album, 2004's Lunar Ecstasy into those filthy stone walls.

Jeff released two more CDs since then, and in the winter of 2008 he returned to that evil mountainside to work on a fourth CD.

With the help of deviant musical masterminds Per Ulfhielm and Magnus "Trummange" Brandell of Odd Grooves fame, this would prove to be no ordinary CD. Like a perfect storm of epic proportions, it would become...

The Immortal Deadbeats EP.



"Holy crap! Dude . . . This new EP is f#@$ing wild, out of control, and so f#@$ing awesome! I've never done a feature review on a mere four songs before, but this EP isn't merely four songs." - Pope John-O, The Ripple Effect

"Mountain Mirrors continues their upward trajectory as a project that just gets more and more interesting with each release. Mainman Jeff Sanders' has tapped into a warm, organic and lush feel for this EP, giving it firm footing in fleeting hints of good progressive rock of yesteryear but fortunately not caving into the pretentions of that scene. More importantly, The Immortal Deadbeats does not sound dated. And unlike most progressive rock outfits, Mountain Mirrors does not spend your precious valuable time noodling away on throwaway exercises in musical dexterity." - John Chedsey, Satan Stole My Teddybear
