They are totally dedicated to his unique doom vision, but even more heavy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The famous Tomas Arfert (Candlemass, Krux) created the logo and also took care of all the artwork for the first album of the band. This was titled \u201cDoom Rules Eternally\u201d and was recorded, mixed and mastered at Fragile Studio by Vangelis Yal. The album was released via German Iron Shield Records on February 9, 2024. Although Distorted Reflection kept a low-profile attitude (no lives\/signings, no audio\/video interviews), the sales and feedback about this album were awesome with great reviews and multiple radio airplay worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On February 2025, the band entered Fragile Studio again to record the sophomore album. Same about artwork and label, Tomas Arfert and Iron Shield Records did the work and all together aim for another successful release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The band will also present again some popular special guest. The mighty guitarist Jack Starr will perform the solo for the opening song of the album \u201cDoom Zone\u201d that will be out on February 27, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/distortedreflectiondoom.bandcamp.com\">https:\/\/distortedreflectiondoom.bandcamp.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/distortedreflectiondoom\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/distortedreflectiondoom<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@distortedreflectiondoom\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@distortedreflectiondoom<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"mailto:distortedreflectiondoom@gmail.com\">distortedreflectiondoom@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;Distorted Reflection reveal their first lyric video &#8220;Gates Of Paranoia&#8221; out from their upcoming second album &#8220;Doom Zone&#8221;.&nbsp; Dedicated to the metal generation of the 80s.
