MÜTTERLEIN Orphans Of The Black Sun LP (Black vinyl LP, Sundust Records)
Conducted by the incredibly talented songwriter, composer and performer Marion Leclercq, joined by Christophe Chavanon, MÜTTERLEIN – with their outstandingly singular debut album – have erased all usual codes, references and clichés to create something utterly unique.
« Orphans Of The Black Sun” is an amazingly gloomy piece of Haunted Rock, a powerful musical fresco weaving fascinating stories of damaged lives, deep neuroses and insanity.
This record is a truly emotional experience: a startling voice propels rivers of acid words through the heart of an incomparable sonic environment, masterfully built upon hellish church organs, emaciated guitars, incantatory gospel choirs and ritualistic percussion.
Enter a parallel universe in which MUTTERLEIN invoke abstract fears beneath the dull spectre of a dead light !
Recorded, mixed & mastered by Christophe Chavanon.
