False Lankum

"Without ever diluting their power or abandoning their gothic intensity, the Dublin group's fourth album lulls the listener with songs of exquisite softness and deeply affecting harmony".

Læs anmeldelse

"The Dublin group has spent a decade making folk music sound foreign and transfixing. Its spellbinding new album uncovers eerie new depths in centuries-old forms".

"False Lankum sounds like industrial music from the 19th century and provides all the comfort of a late period Scott Walker album. And yet, the road of Lankum's career has resolutely led them to create this: a difficult but defining statement made at the height of their powers".

"Selvom albummets numre af og til trækker en kende i langdrag, og en pustepause mindre mellem Lankums dystre udfoldelser havde været velkommen, er False Lankum et smukt og emotionelt berigende album, der tager folkemusikkens rødder, graver dem op og placerer dem i nye intrikate mønstre beriget med post-rockede og ambiente indflydelser".

"Anyone dealing with folk music in the 21st century is working with salvage, with flotsam and jetsam from ages gone. Lankum have found a convincing way to keep the damn hulk going, stoking the engines of folk tradition and setting course to who knows when".

"Top of the world" - "Lankum have always tinkered with an alchemy of drone, metal and experimental elements applied to traditional folk, but on False Lankum they seem to be pushing this to its logical extreme, lending their sound a new volatility that excites and unsettles in equal measure. They're so good. They're just so fucking good".
