About Me |
|
| In the shadow around the cover, only hit by the moonlight, one can hint a silhouette. Unaware that they are being watched, Henry Mancini and Danny Elfman meet and are thereby painted into a cafe by Edward Hopper. A gunshot in Seattle deprives the lurking cat of its shadow. In the shimmer of a streetlight, the cat shows it true form. That is Merlin.
PS. This band will self-destruct in 5 seconds. |

Music:Member Since: 6/10/2006Band Website: merlincore.com Band Members: E-mail: contact {at} merlincore {dot} com Sounds Like: "Riffete rock med intrikate taktskifter og en solid dose galskap." PlanB "Taktskifter, tette riff og gallopperende trommer kjennetegner dette Oslobandet som vellykket sjonglerer med flere baller (og trommestikker) i luften samtidig." Underwood-juryen 2008 "Write Riot Right viser eit pønkhardcoreband som boblar over av kreativitet, originale idear og sprudlande speleglede. Lyttaren blir frå trommevirvelen startar introen med på ein berg- og dalbanetur i rocken. I svingane fins 60-tals surfrock, og loopen er ein eldgammal horrorfilm. Merlin vidareutviklar hardcoresjangeren, og resultatet er heilt unikt." Nrk Urørt "Dette går unna! En blanding av Queens Of The Stoneage og Dillinger Escape Plan? Eller noe helt annet. Vanskelig å finne ut av, men strålende låter som nesten tok Merlin til finalen. Et band som allerede har blitt ukas Urørt og som dukker opp på både Norwegian Wood og Øya. Du hører nok mer fra dem på Pyro fremover." Pyro redaksjonen, NRK Type of Label: Indie |
