Lancer kills posers with ostriches!<\/p>\n
Swedish heavy metal assault militia <\/span>Lancer<\/b> are preparing their fourth studio album <\/span>Tempest<\/em> for detonation on August 11th, 2023 via <\/span>Fireflash Records<\/b>. After six years, a pandemic and lineup changes, Lancer returns with a vengeance and prove they are still a force to be reckoned with. Taking a darker tone in both lyrical content and delivery, Lancer juxtaposed this with a speed metal and power metal infused delivery that comes across like adrenaline pumped directly into the listeners veins, Lancer might not be breaking new ground, but they’re definitely staking their claim as champions among the modern wave of metal traditionalists.<\/span><\/p>\n
Lancer`s chemistry is tangible. These guys play so damn well together and the good vibes between the bandmates seep through to the listener. From the strong vocal work of Jack L. Stroem to the duo of guitarists Per-Owe “Ewo” Solvelius and Fredrik Kelemen, the high end of the band is punchy, rowdy and creates a great offensive front for the group. Meanwhile the rhythms of Emil \u00d6berg on bass, and Pontus Andr\u00e9n on drums, craft a uniformed groove matrix. Their rhythmic union mirrors their bandmates’ cohesion and forms the backbone of the group into a flexible but durable defensive low end.<\/span><\/p>\n
