Mirrortalk Announce New EP 'Where Does Everyone Go When I Need Them Most'

Mirrortalk have shared all the details of their latest EP, set to be released via the band’s new label home Hassle Records.

Set to drop on November 27, the Birmingham band’s upcoming release is titled ‘Where Does Everyone Go When I Need Them Most’.

With previously shared dark, devastating single ‘Circle The Drain’ and the crushing ‘Wait My Turn’ included on the track listing, the EP will also feature the freshly released ‘Forget My Name’.

Deeply introspective, it’s a poignant shoegaze-infused alt. rock track that explores the crippling nature of self-doubt, and the tendency to push push people away when you actually need them there the most.

Speaking on ‘Forget My Name, vocalist Mat Coffey has said:

“Forget My Name ‘talks to those who fight with themselves. When you don’t like who you are, the easiest mistake to make is to push people away, even if you know you need them. This song is about what it feels like when you want people to forget you.”

Mat has also spoken about the process of creating the band’s latest EP, and what we can expect from ‘Where Does Everyone Go When I Need Them Most’ :

“Mirrortalk has always been built on a desire to combine all the music we loved growing up; but ‘Where Does Everyone Go When I Need Them Most’ is our greatest nod to that yet. Elements of metal and hardcore, shoegaze, and pure rock have gone into every track, making it feel like a new offering that is grounded in some familiarity for people who are fans of the same music as us.

“The recording was done at Lower Lane Studios by our good friend Jonny Price, and if there’s one thing we took seriously while tracking, it was guitar tone. We wanted the release to be driven by the guitar, and throughout the process we dialled in and layered some sounds we feel are hitting the nail on the head for what Mirrortalk wants to sound like.

“Throughout our other releases we have tackled a lot of topics around mental health and self-battling. This continues through this release, but also touches on some other personal notes we hope people can feel connected to. “Where Does Everyone Go When I Need Them Most” is the best reflection of our direction, and we just hope people want to come along”
