October 24, 2024 After their successful second album Dark Mother Rises, the female-fronted melodic metallers LANKESTER MERRIN from Lower Saxony are releasing their third album, Dark Mother’s Child. This album offers nine neck-breaking and at the same time highly melodic songs, including true metal anthems and varied mid-tempo rockers, heavy double bass numbers and powerful power ballads.
On Dark Mother’s Child, the band continues its breathtaking development and sometimes goes a little harder musically than on its predecessors. Razor-sharp solos, lightning-fast double bass passages and driving guitar riffs make this album an audio experience worth listening to, and the multifaceted singing of front woman Cat Rogers should not go unmentioned. She has succeeded in refining and specifying her style, making her voice an almost unmistakable figurehead for Lankester Merrin.
The album was again recorded and produced at the Institute for Harmonic Research in Hanover (including Drone, Grailknights) under the direction of Hannes Huke and is recommended to every fan of catchy, powerful, melodic power metal that stays away from the usual symphonic corner despite female vocals!
