MIRROR officially debuted on 3 November 2018, and they released their debut single "In a Second" (Chinese: 一秒間) on 25 November 2018. Mirror have been described by local and international media as "the new kings of Cantopop" and a "Cantopop phenomenon". They are credited for reviving the Cantopop genre, which had been slowly declining since the 2000s. Mirror's appeal in Hong Kong transcends demographics, and the group is regarded as a "symbol of hope" in a city struggling with political upheaval and the COVID-19 pandemic.

In 1973 the band expanded its line-up with the addition of Philip de Goey on saxophone, woodwinds, and oboe. Their sole album was recorded over six days at the Stable Studio in Arnhem, The Netherlands. The album was titled Daybreak and was released in 1976, pressed in only 500 copies. The music is mainly instrumental and is influenced by Focus, Yes, and Pink Floyd. After the release of the album Mirror toured their native Holland extensively. But internal disagreements soon led to the departure of Johan Saanen and the band finally split up in late 1976.

UPDATED INFORMATION FOR : Mirror (Moscow):
MIRROR is a rock/metal band from Germany, founded by Mike Breeze, who was born in Moscow and moved to Germany after he graduated school.
MIRROR use lots of incfluences, such as visual kei, glam, gothic, classical music and folklore (mostly Russian), that create an original kaleidoscopic sound.
MIRROR released 2 albums:
"Shocking Debut" (2007),
"Valentine's Eve" (2012)
and 4 singles (each including non-album tracks):
"Red Dye" (2006),
"Heart Of Ice" (2007),
"Valentine" (2008),
"Glitter Critter" (2012).
MIRROR had played the first gig in 2002 and since the second gig in 2004 the line-up never changed:
Mike Breeze (vocals, piano, bass, balalaika, occasional guitars),
Ramin Andarmani (guitars, backing vocals)
Ian Weid (drums, backing vocals).
In 2005 Mike played a solo piano gig featuring mostly piano versions of Mirror songs, and Leif Astroid (aka Dancette Pleasure from German glam rock band The Pleasures) sang "Heart Of Ice" as special guest.
It worked so well that Mike and Leif decided to continue joint work in the studio, as well as on stage.
At first, it all took place as part of MIRROR recordings and live gigs, and sometimes as "Mike+Leif" live gigs - as a kind of side project.
The duet gradually evolved into a real band and the name SOLOWSHOW* was chosen.
SOLOWSHOW* concentrates on unplugged music in the studio and live, while the music is influenced by the same rock / metal, / visual kei / glam / goth kaleidoscope like MIRROR's music, plus lots of drama and cabaret elements.
SOLOWSHOW*'s line-up never changed since its first appearance in 2005:
Mike Breeze (piano, acoustic guitar, vocals),
Leif Astroid (lead vocals, keyboards, occasional percussion).
SOLOWSHOW* released an album that was titled after the band's style with the self-created word "Visuacoustic" (2012).
After that, the band immediately started working on the 2nd album...
The single "The Won" (2014) was first aired on 23. May 2014, Friday, ~6 pm CET (Berlin time) - ~midnight EST (Pennsylvania time) on American DJ CyberMusicLover's show on Power92-Radio.com (also aired via Nokia, Nobex, Global, Virtual Radio, Radio Tuna, Tunein Radio, iTunes).
SOLOWSHOW* constantly tour all over Germany and sometimes in Mike's home country - Russia, but also plan to expand their territories.

Mirror Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Given up on eating shit for no wage
No maker's mark imprinted on me
I trade disintegration for a clear head
By the stars, I search the night with no destination
But I watch for signs and catalog their nightly devotions
We don't stand a chance
Our time is coming to an end
Living in denial, head in sand and arm up ass
The humans' God, even if it existed
It would keep killing them
Oh, it would keep killing them
No help
No prayers answered
No
No!
We are sovereign over nothing in the end
Wake the self encrusted for so long
Bring forth the truth
Time and death are the same
Give in to the cycle
Much more can be made
From the broken bones and severed sinew
Drench the land in blood, for the time is now
The sand's run out
Recycle life, we'll burn to ash and
Magma will encrust all of the earth
It'll be ripped from our hands
So stop wasting your life disintegrating
Reclaim your trivial, insignificant amount of control
Take my hand, and make your first and last decree as God
Make your judgment
Fly by the night
Exhale for the end is nigh
Emerge from this crimson glow anew
My friend, we give ourselves body and soul to the great unknown
There is nothing else
We sacrifice ourselves to the Vantablack throne
We give ourselves body and soul to the great unknown
There is nothing else
We sacrifice ourselves for the quantified goal: Apollyon
The lyrics to Mirror's song "The Unknown" explore themes of disillusionment, futility, and nihilism. The singer has given up on their own life and the pointless work that consumes them, seeking instead some kind of clarity or transcendence. They search for signs in the night sky but also recognize that human existence is ultimately doomed. Even the idea of God is seen as destructive and ultimately against human interests.
The singer encourages listeners to wake up to the truth, to recognize that death is inevitable and that all life is part of a cycle that includes destruction and rebirth. The final lines suggest a kind of apotheosis, with the singer urging listeners to take control of their own lives and make their own judgments, to become something akin to gods themselves.
Overall, the song can be seen as a meditation on the meaninglessness of life and the search for some kind of transcendent experience that can counterbalance that. It paints a bleak picture of humanity's ultimate fate, but also encourages a kind of defiant acceptance of that fate.
Line by Line Meaning
Given up on life pretending
No longer pretending to live life
Given up on eating shit for no wage
No longer working for little to no reward
No maker's mark imprinted on me
No distinct markings or traits define me
I trade disintegration for a clear head
Giving up self-destructive behaviors for mental clarity
By the stars, I search the night with no destination
Wandering aimlessly, seeking guidance from celestial bodies
But I watch for signs and catalog their nightly devotions
Observing and recording patterns in the night sky
We don't stand a chance
Humanity is doomed
This human existence is sprinting, beaming towards the end of time
Humanity is rapidly approaching its own demise
Our time is coming to an end
Humanity's time on earth is limited
Living in denial, head in sand and arm up ass
Refusing to acknowledge the impending doom
The humans' God, even if it existed
Questioning the existence and motives of a deity
It would keep killing them
Even if a god existed, it would not save humanity from its fate
No help
There is no one to turn to for salvation
No prayers answered
Appeals to a divine being go unheard or unanswered
No
A simple, final rejection of any hope
No!
A cry of desperation and despair
We are sovereign over nothing in the end
Humanity has no control over its ultimate fate
Wake the self encrusted for so long
Awaken from a long period of complacency
Bring forth the truth
Uncover the harsh reality of our situation
Time and death are the same
The passage of time leads inevitably towards death
Give in to the cycle
Accept that life is cyclical and inevitable
Much more can be made
There is greater potential in embracing the cycle of life and death
From the broken bones and severed sinew
Creating new life from the remains of the dead
Drench the land in blood, for the time is now
Embrace the cycle of destruction and rebirth
The sand's run out
Time is running out
Recycle life, we'll burn to ash and
Life must be reborn from the ashes of the old
Magma will encrust all of the earth
The earth will be consumed by volcanic activity
It'll be ripped from our hands
Humanity's control over the earth will be forcibly taken away
So stop wasting your life disintegrating
Stop engaging in self-destructive behavior
Reclaim your trivial, insignificant amount of control
Take back whatever small amount of control you can
Take my hand, and make your first and last decree as God
Embracing personal power and making the most of it
Make your judgment
Take responsibility for your actions and choices
Fly by the night
Moving quickly but aimlessly through life
Exhale for the end is nigh
Breathing out a final sigh before the end arrives
Emerge from this crimson glow anew
Emerging transformed from the chaos of destruction
My friend, we give ourselves body and soul to the great unknown
Humanity is ultimately powerless against the forces of the universe
There is nothing else
No other meaning or purpose beyond the cycle of life and death
We sacrifice ourselves to the Vantablack throne
Giving ourselves over completely to the darkness and uncertainty of the universe
We give ourselves body and soul to the great unknown
Surrendering to the unknown forces of the universe
There is nothing else
No other purpose or meaning beyond accepting the inevitability of life and death
We sacrifice ourselves for the quantified goal: Apollyon
Giving ourselves over completely to the forces of destruction and chaos
