Blaak Heat Releasing New Album "Shifting Mirrors"

Blaak Heat is an avant-garde, Parisian-American stoner rock trio, now signed Svart Records and prepping the "Shifting Mirrors" album for release on April 15th.

The band enlisted the help of Grammy Award-winning Matt Hyde (Deftones, Slayer) to produce the material that makes up this perilous and fervent third album. To get a taste of the album, check out a video for "Sword Of Hakim" below.

Discussing the nature of the album’s sound, guitarist/singer Thomas Bellier Bellier said: “We took our favorite Middle Eastern sounds, and reinterpreted them through the prism of our cultural baggage – weird European psychedelia, a healthy dose of vintage hard rock, experimental jazz... With Matt [Hyde], we were able to mix loud fuzz guitar tones along with traditional acoustic instruments, such as the oud and the kanun.”
