Release Notes:
Skip Skip Ben Ben is back with their latest long-player Mirror In Mirror, a
long swirl down the drain-hole of lucid dream consciousness. All gauze guitar
and big-room drums, Mirror In Mirror's sound is vintage '90s dropout rock,
backgrounding vocalist Ben Ben's inimitable falsetto rasp. Lyrically, Mirror
In Mirror is Ben Ben continuing on her anesthetized trip through emotional id
after emotional id, finding meaning in the darkest corners of consciousness
then losing it in the light. Redemption as chemical, Faustian trade. As she
belts to her self-reflexive subject on "8oul": "I caní»t feel my soul / you can
keep my soul."
The title track, "Mirror In Mirror", flips the whole thing into a carnival
waltz, hurtling along on a slow-motion carousel populated by "things that don't
exist, or maybe things that night after night after night can't sleep." The
wonky lounge vibes spill over into the next track, "Over", where a lifted
Sinatra riff jams its way jaggedly into the somnambulant soundscape, Ben Ben
continuing her pitiless narration: "Jane is getting high, sheí»s not coming
back / í¡ / who cares if the sunrise doesn't shine?"
Mirror In Mirror is about solitude and soul, medication and meditation.
Ben Ben reaches her most poignant pitch on the album's standout track "Do the
R", where she struggles to resolve universal love with the mundanity of the
everyday: "You, Me, He and the world are all a single golden line / Quit the
boring work, violence inflicted by words, chains built by desire / Why do you
want to give up so easily?"
