Evans comments:
The song ‘Mirror Mosh’ came from me reading the trans social commentator Contrapoints discuss online discourse fatigue on Twitter as it was shitting the bed. I was thinking about online spaces where people try so hard to make others doubt themselves in a vain scramble to feel superior. It is about Nazis and crybullies pretending they have thicker skin, essentially.
I got to use a lot of different ‘voices’ and cadences in this song and it was all purposeful. Faith No More, Bane, and mighty Sam Black Church all get a stylistic nod, in an effort to highlight people of value to our subculture. Everyone is such a hater nowadays. That is why the bridge with Gridfailure's Dave Brenner screaming behind me encourages a ‘Fuck what you heard’ and putting plans into motion mentality. Go out and build something cool. Be the change you want to see and look in the mirror through your own eyes, not through distorted troll insults.
