OAK - "Mirror"

This long 19 min. track "Mirror" is one of the first songs shown to the public by Portuguese funeral doom metal band OAK, of their upcoming debut full-length album "Lone", which is due to be released on 20th December of this year.
I say long but not boring, definitely on the opposite, it's a deep atmospheric track that takes your senses away on a whole different dimension, as if part of a great journey that "Lone" itself can provide. According to the band members, this album is like: "A long journey where you find yourself in the middle of multiple scenarios and you can almost see the landscaping as you hear the gigantic sounds that echo through all of those places. From the burden one could carry to hold this world to the claustrophobic maze that traps your soul. - an ummerciful journey between Life and Death".
OAK were formed in Porto, in the year of 2017, by Guilherme Henriques (guitars & vocals) and Pedro Soares (drums), who are also involved with the Portuguese black metal band Gaerea. Both of these projects will be at MetalMad's Oath Circle Meeting II in Funchal, but for OAK will be more of a return, as they already performed at DTOX bar last year in October, absorving everyone on the crowd with their doom and grim sound! Surely they will provide that experience again, next Friday night on the Free Stage of OCM II.
We metal heads in Madeira, can all feel very fortunate to witness "Lone" live in our land before it comes out to the World. Here it is, "Mirror":
