A Gate Through Bloodstained Mirrors

A Gate Through Bloodstained Mirrors is a 2001 demo by the American black metal one-man-band Xasthur.

Reviews of that release, first published by Profane Productions as a limited CD-R edition of 150 copies, proved to be positive, comparing the material to old Graveland and Burzum.

[1] With the increasing cult status of Xasthur, the demo was reissued by Total Holocaust Records, featuring a different mix and track list (CD and cassette, 2004).

This edition was also published as a double-12" vinyl release by Debemur Morti Productions (2004) and finally by Hydra Head Records (double-CD release, the second CD containing further rare material, 2008).

[2] For this first official release as a regular CD, all the tracks of the demo (which was originally published in mono) were remixed in 2003.
