Sanctuary is now actively seeking a new lead guitarist! Sanctuary will embark on a 30th Anniversary celebration, a tour supporting their 1990 release Into The Mirror Black in 2021.

"We are also currently in the pre-production stages on a new album tentatively titled Transmutation, so we will need someone that can write epic guitar solos as well," states the band.

"To audition - record yourself playing rhythm and /or lead guitars for the songs: "Season Of Destruction", "Future Tense" and "Frozen". Send us a link to download the video (or upload it yourself to YouTube) and a brief bio by filling out the contact form at SanctuaryOfficial.com."

Lenny Rutledge comments: “We are so excited to finally be releasing this special edition of Into The Mirror Black! The remaster of the original songs sounds awesome and the 1990 Black Reflections”live concert is finally going to be released in all its authentic live glory. The live material was mixed and mastered by Zeuss and is presented as recorded. No re-recordings or overdubs. Look for Sanctuary on tour in fall of 2021 playing the entire Into The Mirror Black set. We can't wait to bring the live show to Europe, USA and South America in 2021.”

Into The Mirror Black (30th Anniversary Edition) will be released as limited LP edition containing three 180 gram vinyls housed in a wide-spine Gatefold sleeve and includes an 8-page LP-sized booklet, the 2CD format comes in a digipak and slipcase packaging, and the entire set is available digitally as well.
