WILDERNESS OF MIRRORS
A split album by STEALTH, MAXDMYZ, SIXIS, AND DIE KUR
An unprecedented alliance exploring the lingering shadows of the Cold War
NMTCG proudly announces the upcoming release of the split concept album
“Wilderness of Mirrors”, set for worldwide release on November 9th, 2025, on the 36th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Four of the UK’s most uncompromising underground forces, Stealth, Maxdmyz, Sixis, and Die Kur, unite for an extraordinary split album entitled “Wilderness of Mirrors”, a conceptually rich and sonically intense reflection on the psychological and cultural fallout of the Cold War and its ongoing influence on the modern world.
Featuring 12 tracks plus a hidden bonus, Wilderness of Mirrors is not just a split release, it’s a collective statement, a rallying call from four distinct yet like-minded bands who channel industrial power, metal aggression, and electronic precision into a shared vision of truth, deception, and modern paranoia.
Drawing its name from the intelligence term “wilderness of mirrors”, a phrase describing a world of deception, counter-deception, and endless reflection, the album confronts the psychological landscape that emerged from decades of propaganda, espionage, and ideological conflict.
From the tension of nuclear dread to the manipulation of information in the digital age, Wilderness of Mirrors challenges listeners to confront how the shadows of the past still shape the fears and fractures of the present.
In an era of digital isolation and fragmented subcultures, Wilderness of Mirrors stands as a rare moment of solidarity: four independent bands joining forces to create something larger than themselves. This is not a compilation, but a collective work, built on mutual respect, shared vision, and a commitment to art that challenges and provokes.
The collaboration showcases the strength of the underground: artists who refuse to be confined by labels, algorithms, or commercial trends. It’s a reminder that true innovation often thrives in the spaces between.
Wilderness of Mirrors reflecting the ghosts of past empires while exposing the new architectures of control that define the digital age.
Its themes resonate powerfully today: information warfare, media distortion, and the corrosion of truth itself. The record is as much about the Cold War of the past as it is about the cold wars we live through now: ideological, informational, and psychological.

THE BANDS
STEALTH: A sonic hybrid of industrial rock and metal, Stealth deliver hard-edged precision and
mechanical drive, combining cold rhythmic power with a deeply human pulse. Their contribution on
Wilderness of Mirrors explores the loss of individuality within systems of control, rendered through
razor-sharp riffs, haunting samples, and cinematic atmospheres.
MAXDMYZ: Known for their genre-defying fusion of industrial, alchemical metal, and electronics,
Maxdmyz bring a visceral and unpredictable energy to the record. Their tracks delve into the
psychological manipulation and disinformation that defined the Cold War. Expect explosive grooves,
provocative lyrics, and fearless creativity.
SIXIS: Sixis emerge from the darker edge of the industrial scene, blending mechanical rhythm,
ambient menace, and emotional depth. Their pieces on Wilderness of Mirrors are both introspective
and confrontational meditations on paranoia, surveillance, and the human desire for connection
amidst the noise of deception.
DIE KUR: Leaders of the UK’s industrial metal vanguard, Die Kur bring intellectual intensity and sonic
brutality in equal measure. Their conceptual songwriting and philosophical approach provide the
thematic backbone of Wilderness of Mirrors, tying the album’s narrative together with reflections on
propaganda, ideology, and resistance.
OFFICINA METALMECCANICA: A bonus track with a cover version of the classic Matia Bazar tune
Fantasia, reimagined in an industrial metal soundscape.
