Biografia : One-Way Mirror

ONE-WAY MIRROR is a brand new rock metal band on the verge of triggering a revolution in the world of music. The band was created in 2005 when five close friends decided to join forces to create the ultimate rock metal band: Guillaume Bideau (Mnemic), David and Franck Potvin (Lyzanxia, Phaze I), Dirk Verbeuren (Soilwork) and Loic Colin (Scarve, Watcha).

These buddies were used to sharing the stage with their respective bands and as they got closer throughout the years, they started working on more and more projects together and eventually they came up with the idea of creating a band in the rock metal genre, in which they would include all their influences to bring out a unique style boasting the most powerful and melodic hard-hitting rock anthems of today.

They got together for two weeks in studio to party and to work on some tunes just to see how things could develop. In the end the alchemy was so perfect that 11 killer tracks were composed.
With their venture taking serious shape, the musicians decided to go to Sweden to record the drums with Daniel Bergstrand (Meshuggah, In Flames, a.o.) at the Dug Out Studio.
Everything else was recorded later on at Lyzanxia's Dome Studio/Guillaume Bideau's Dogs In The House Studio and produced by Guillaume Bideau and David Potvin.

The album was finalized in October 2007 when the band went to Denmark to get the tracks mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen (Sick Of It All, Dark Tranquility, Mnemic, a.o.) at the Antfarm Studio.
One Way Mirror now had its full identity and 11 killer tunes under its belt.
The next logical step was to get plastic arts master Alain Trehard to design the album cover and the booklet.

ONE-WAY MIRROR's debut album is nothing less than a killing machine with potential mega hit after mega hit, including future anthems ‘Empty Spaces', ‘As You Are Now', ‘Destination Device' as well as a mindblowing rock version of ‘Relax' by eighties band Frankie Goes To Hollywood! During the recording sessions the musicians were having such a blast and the atmosphere was so relaxed and fun that they all started to jam on the pop hits of the 80's and FGTH's ‘Relax' lent itself so well to a rock makeover that ONE-WAY MIRROR just had to give it their ballsy special treatment and make it the most rocking version ever.
