Lankum

Lankum began their career in the Irish folk scene, but their musical inquisitiveness and innovative approach have always pushed them beyond its boundaries. With their 2023 album False Lankum, they definitely arrived in the avant-garde. They delve deep into the history of Irish and English traditionals, combining them with prog rock sound experiments and improvisation. Life-wearied songs of day labourers and peasant women of yesteryear are modernised with agonising playing styles from free jazz and bone-rattling extremo metal.
