Today’s finally the day: LYRRE released their second album „Nothing Is Promised“. LYRRE is perhaps not the most well-known metal band out there (unfortunately – they deserve more love!). The band was formed by former Eluveitie hurdy-gurdy player Michalina Malisz and her husband Piotr Martus in 2022. In 2023, they released their debut album „Not All Who Dream Are Asleep“. The sound of the band is described online as „neomedieval metal“. Listening to the new album, I can’t necessarily say I head much of the „medieval“, except for Michalina’s signature instrument, the hurdy-gurdy. Nevertheless, it’s an amazing album and I have some opinions to share.
