The discs are housed in anti-static black sleeves. Only 500 copies have been pressed, 350 in black and 150 in clear\/transparent (as pictured below). Each record side has a different label picture as well which just adds that special touch of detail and care. As with all of the other Theocracy vinyl in this series, these are nicely weighted and flat discs with a clean surface.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\"><span style=\"color: #666666;\"><span class=\"inherit-font-size\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_4f4aaf2d452146f481bc621709b186e7-mv2_d_2689_2693_s_4_2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"287.96\" height=\"288.42\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\"><span class=\"inherit-font-size\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"inherit-font-size\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_53118199c0244da2a3170da66eff017c-mv2_d_2846_2825_s_4_2-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"287.96\" height=\"285.66\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"color: #666666;\">Not surprisingly, this music sounds fantastic in this format, comparable but maybe just slightly less powerful, than the sound from the <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Ghost Ship<\/span> and <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">As The World Bleeds<\/span> vinyl. While I always remember being blown away by greats like \u201cOn Eagles\u2019 Wings,\u201d \u201cAbsolution Day\u201d and &#8220;Laying The Demon To Rest&#8221; the rich vinyl setting really makes a song like \u201cBethlehem\u201d stand out even more so than when originally released. And, of course, it is great to finally hear the title track song \u201cMirror Of Souls\u201d as an entire album side (D)! For those craving truth-infused power-prog, this album is full of great anthems and metal worship, and fans who have enjoyed the other records in this series better grab this one quick before they disappear! (I\u2019ve included my review from 2008 below for reference).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\">\n<p class=\"font_9\">\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_d3dc94d222174c97bea51530a60f940b-mv2_d_2744_2740_s_4_2-9.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"287.96\" height=\"287.5\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_67254bed90954756b781448b445c8ee7-mv2_d_2702_2689_s_4_2-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"287.96\" height=\"286.58\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_9\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"color: #213f95;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Theocracy &#8211; Mirror Of Souls<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Matt Smith, now accompanied by Shawn Benson (drums) and Jonathan Hinds (guitars), has done it again. One of the most anticipated releases this year in the Christian metal market, Mirror of Souls delivers just about everything a fan of this genre could desire. Every song is well-crafted, with catchy hooks and memorable, melodic vocals. Smith is a gifted songwriter and uses his voice effectively \u2013 with so many layers \u2013 to portray the beautiful message found within the lyrics. The addition of a real drummer was a huge plus for Matt and really propels this band into a position to perform live. The only piece missing from the Theocracy equation is that neither guitarist really solos. While the songs certainly don\u2019t suffer for lack of it, soloing is generally indigenous to this type of metal, so it seems a bit odd \u2026 but it\u2019s not a huge negative. Every song here is excellent \u2013 no filler \u2013 but the highlights would be the very heavy \u201cLaying the Demon to Rest\u201d and the epic title track. Interestingly, both these songs represent the most progressive tunes on the CD, with lots of tempo changes and dynamic contrast. The biggest difference to me on this one compared to the debut release would be in the vocal department. Matt has really improved in this area and the recording quality\/mixing, etc. sounds better as well. While the songs aren\u2019t as magical this time around, probably because they are a bit more direct and the \u201cnewness\u201d factor of this band is now gone, this is still a fantastic collection of quintessential power metal.<\/span><span class=\"color_12\"> &#8211; <\/span><span style=\"color: #cb2026;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Jonathan &#8220;Doc&#8221; Swank (2008)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/d7ac5b_aaad4505170344049746343e2bfa6ee3-mv2_d_4032_2036_s_2-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"626\" height=\"316.1\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ulterium-records.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ulterium Records<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ulteriumstore.bigcartel.com\/product\/theocracy-mirror-of-souls-2lp-edition-pre-order\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Release Date: November 23, 2018<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Side A<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">1.
