GenesisJames Very neat stuff. Guitar work is great, vocals are light and airy( matching the album themes), and of course we have the math rock drum patterns. I really liked the jazz touches, and that synth is probably the biggest highlight for me. Really stands out from other bands/albums like this! Favorite track: Some Time Away.

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) A GREAT female voice, GREAT songwriting, and a GREAT electra piano sound - this results in a GREAT album! It's quite jazzy, but with extensive and elaborate orchestration. The band is rather new, and hopefully will delight us GREATLY with many more albums of this kind. Favorite track: Detroit.

We climbed Great heights We took Our time Above The pines Where hearts Unwind Feeling, The Breeze Swaying, The trees Amber sun Rolling Green Hesitation I took a step over the ledge That I’m on Still no words Finally whispers I wanna, I wanna, I wanna Scream Waves of Energy (3) Rolling out around me

Addicted to the cold Looking outside of your window But you feel so alone In your crystal castle Solid walls are no place for a home Figments Of your Imagination (x2) By the look of it You are not a simple man Addicted to the cold Empty handed Etched in stone

Mufasa 03:22
I hear you Okay, I hear you Standing there in the back of the room Darkness falls upon your silhouette Light up your cigarette You turn my gold to dust Congratulations you’ve won You You turn You turn my gold to dust Like a rock I was so still And you were watching me Like a rock I was so still And you were watching me

By word of mouth Hands around the rope Passion Violent passion Nothing ever tastes as sweet The sinner’s greed For satisfaction An endless fight A feared retreat One hundred miles On tired feet You lead the movements With passion in your eyes Each move you’re making Venom fills you mind Raging fire (x2) An endless fight A feared retreat One hundred miles On tired feet

Beyond the mirror Familiar features But like a flower One day will wither And fall away to dust It’s washed away in the summer Evaporates as seasons change This skin Is the edge Of all Of my illusions I am not a miracle I am God I am visceral (x2) This child bears a soft heart And keeps close to mother nature She feeds my deepest hunger I unfold, I unfold And place my ego at your feet Criticize, or you could beat me I am not the chains that bind me I am free, I am free I am not a miracle I am God I am visceral (x2)

about

At once aurally expansive, visually seductive, and cleverly compelling, "It's Been A Pleasure" fuses together experimental rock and fresh neo-soul vibes with modern prog, jazz, and a dose of electronic chaos, yielding an impressive debut album from Mirage.
Based out of Gainesville, Florida, Mirage formed in late 2016 and have been quickly captivating audiences with an extremely high-energy live show, seamlessly winding between bright, powerful melodies and dark, menacing grooves. The synergy found from each members' influence on Mirage's sound is a true testament to Gainesville's beautifully diverse musical ecosystem.

Mirage Gainesville, Florida

uhhhhhhhh hi lmaooo

If you've got a beating heart, chances are we're on the same tempo. <3

The ancient Greeks worshipped circles. I don't think they anticipated tight nooses and tightened necks.

If i could teleport and give you that hug, i really would. There's been lots of empty plates this decade.

A bomb.
A body bag.
And a hand.

Wand.

These silences dance us to orbit, too.
