Mirrorwork is an album by the New Zealand musician Alastair Galbraith, released in 1998. [3] [1] It was released by Emperor Jones in the U.S. [4]
AllMusic wrote: "Where the joy of Mirrorwork comes in is how [Galbraith] works that combination to his own ends, coming up with some new, intriguing results. The combination of soft and clattering has been done before, for instance, but 'Ludd,' with prominent acoustic guitar in one speaker and various feedback growls and random noises in the other, is one of Galbraith's best balances between the two extremes."
