Oor Review ---------------------
Tijs Heesterbeek 1 juni 2026 album ROCK All Them Witches House Of Mirrors BMG
Het is bijna jaloersmakend om te zien hoe ogenschijnlijk argeloos de bandleden van All Them Witches op het podium staan.
Lonkend naar het publiek en amper kijkend naar hun gitaarhalzen gieten ze hun zompige bluesrock de zaal in, als een trage moerasrivier van tonen.
Het kabbelt allemaal prachtig door, al wordt er wel op gelet dat de muzikale swamp boat nooit over zijn toeren gaat: de vijfde versnelling wordt nooit helemaal benut.
Het typeert de lankmoedigheid waarmee ze hun muziek benaderen.
Alsof het toevallig uit hun vingers komt. Saaiheid ligt dan op de loer, maar die weet het viertal goed te omzeilen.
House Of Mirrors is als muzikaal drijfzand: je hebt het amper door, maar je zakt steeds verder het universum van All Them Witches in.
Hun zevende album broeit zonder dat er grote gebaren aan te pas komen.
De plaat eindigt dan ook met Saturn Song, zonder episch eind of daverend slotakkoord.
Gewoon, een laatste nummer dat ook in het midden had kunnen staan. En ondertussen heb je je geen moment verveeld.
Ook dat is een kracht.

All Them Witches – House of Mirrors (2026)
Filed Under: psychedelic rock by driX — 1 Comment
May 28, 2026
The Nashville, TN-based rock outfit All Them Witches almost called it quits in 2024 when drummer and founding member Robby Staebler left, but the group recalibrated,
bringing on their friend Christian Powers to man the kit.
This lineup change reinvigorated the collective and put them on the path to develop their newest offering House of Mirrors.
The core of Charles Michael Parks Jr. – bass, vocals, Ben McLeod – guitar, vocals, and Allan Van Cleave – Rhodes piano, keyboards, violin, along with Powers,
worked with producer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Jesse Welles) and have shifted the band’s sound yet again.
For House of Mirrors, All Them Witches have delivered the most straight-ahead rock record of their career while absorbing folk and blues influences.
Their more psychedelic and quirkier elements have been scaled back, as the ATW uses metal, alt-rock, and even a ballad to explore the sound.
Things begin ominously as the group turns the Appalachian-based folk song, “Red Rocking Chair”, into an elephantine monster.
Using sludgy riffs, the heaviest, most stoner-rock number kicks things off with speaker-splintering guitar tone and a strong, lumbering low end, delivering an album highlight to start.
That style seeps into “Culling Line” as the opening pairing hits hard with synths underneath thunder.
Things shift for “Aethernet” as the band brings in a touch of country-influenced twang for the blues stomp, which runs a bit long.
“Hold Up, Say What?” is more motoring with fuzzy riffs, a mid-song break for strings, and a screeching finale, while “Go-Getter” is a soft yearning break.
That downshift works well for “Starting Line,” which begins acoustically before kicking up the sound in alt-rock fashion.
New member Powers takes center stage on “Turn On the Light,” which maintains crunchy riffs but is truly a drum showcase, with tempo shifts driving the tune.
A touch of swaggering style is sprinkled into “Angel on the Wayside” before “The Welterweight”, a personal ballad Parks penned for his grandfather, a Welterweight boxing champion in Alabama.
Album closer “Saturn Song” uses just a slight touch of prog-rock, but for the vast majority of House of Mirrors, All Them Witches stay grounded, prodding forward with rumbling, crackling hard rock.
