LYRIEL Signs With FEMME METAL RECORDS
February 11, 2009Femme Metal Records has announced the signing of Germany's LYRIEL for the release of the band's third album, tentatively due late 2009.
Formed in 2003, LYRIEL's music can be defined as "dark romantic celtic rock" and combines rock with medieval, classic and folk-elements. On top of this, Jessica's strong but gentle voice brings a melodic vibe into the music.
The band has supported such artists as XANDRIA, SCHANDMAUL, CORVUS CORAX, SALTATIO MORTIS, OOMPH!, SCHELMISH and MANNFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND.
LYRIEL's first album, "Prisonworld", was released on January 17, 2005 by Black Bards Entertainment. Whats very unique about the CD is that it contains a song sung in Sindarin, the language of the elves in "Lord Of The Rings". The band's second album, "Autumntales", followed on September 29, 2006. The CD contained guest vocals by Sabine Dünser (ELIS),who died on July 8, 2006 at the age of 29. As a tribute to Sabine, LYRIEL added a version of the song "My Favourite Dream", which only features Dünser's vocals and classical instruments.
LYRIEL's lineup:
Jessica - Vocals
Olli - Guitar
Dani - Drums
Sven - Bass
Martin - Keyboards
