Conducted by the incredibly talented songwriter, composer and performer Marion Leclercq, joined by Christophe Chavanon, MÜTTERLEIN - with their outstandingly singular debut album - have erased all usual codes, references and clichés to create something utterly unique. "Orphans Of The Black Sun” is an amazingly gloomy piece of Haunted Rock, a powerful musical fresco weaving fascinating stories of damaged lives, deep neuroses and insanity. This record is a truly emotional experience: a startling voice propels rivers of acid words through the heart of an incomparable sonic environment, masterfully built upon hellish church organs, emaciated guitars, incantatory gospel choirs and ritualistic percussion. Enter a parallel universe in which MUTTERLEIN invoke abstract fears beneath the dull spectre of a dead light!
