Fun House Mirrors is the fourth album by Almagest!, the second under the Almagest! Moniker being the first two releases credited to founding members Fabrizio Modonese Palumbo and Ernesto Tomasini. After four years the band comes back with a new sound far from the piano driven pieces of the previous Messier Objects (2013) and manifesting itself into five long electric richly textured and arranged, as the title suggests, conceptually and sonically distorted cinematic compositions made of the fabric of sensual and disturbing dreams and sang by the many voices of Ernesto Tomasini in a variety of European, lost and alien languages. Almagest! #is: Ernesto Tomasini, Fabrizio Modonese Palumbo, Paul Beauchamp, Evor Ameisie. Fun House Mirrors has been engineered by Paul Beauchamp; produced by Palumbo and Tomasini; mastered by James Plotkin and features contributions by Canadian cello player Julia Kent, drummer Marco "Il Bue" Schiavo (from cult band Larsen), Colombian multi-instrumentalist Maria Mallol Moya, and experimental brass player Ramon Moro.
