Sanctuary - Into The Mirror Black

Facts Seattle's Sanctuary recorded Into the Mirror Black at the infamous Sound City Studios in 1989. The band triumphantly ignored suggestions to tweak their Bay-Area Thrash & traditional Heavy Metal sound in favour of the then more commercially viable Seattle Grunge-sound, choosing instead to firmly hold their ground with this often overlooked masterpiece. Although the band reached it's demise in 1992, Warrel Dane (vocals) and Jim Shepherd (bass) later carried The Sanctuary legacy forward with the formation of Nevermore. In 2010 they reformed and brought their songs back on stage. Lead vocalist Warrel Dane died in 2017. Into the Mirror Black is available as limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on purple coloured vinyl.
