Biography

Gummersbach, Germany (2003 – present)

Lyriel is a band formed in Gummersbach in 2003. They describe their style as ‘dark romantic Celtic rock’ and can be easily compared to Blackmore’s Night and various bands, although they do not copy these bands; they place more emphasis on sounds. They are also notable for frontwoman Jessica Thierjung’s vocals, which add a unique touch to their already distinguishable sound.

Additionally, they feature the cello and violin on stage without using samples.

They have released four albums: Prisonworld, Autumntales, Paranoid Circus and their latest Leverage.

Band members:
Jessica Thierjung (vocals)
Linda Laukamp (cello, vocals)

Oliver Thierjung (guitar)
Joon Laukamp (violin)
Martin Ahmann (keys)
Daniel de Beer (drums)
Sven Engelmann (bass)

    Very nice music and their album Paranoid Circus is pretty good.

    I agree that Leverage is pretty lacking, but Paranoid Circus was pretty great though.

    Autumntales is one of my favorite albums of all time, maybe #1. Paranoid Circus had its high points, but Leverage is a generic clone of a half-dozen Gothic metal bands who've done it better. I really hope one day Lyriel returns to form. Until then, what a sad misuse of Jessica's voice.

    Amazing band! I love most of their songs but Autumntales and Paranoid Circus are the best albums by now!

    Sure did take a while for my hard copy to get here -- but I'm not exactly what you could call "patient," either, I guess. I think "White Lily" is probably my favorite off the new album. Or, at least, that's what grabs me first.

    imo their best album is autumntales and after that prisonworld. i reallly liked them when they were more influenced by folk music. but just a personal opinion

    Wow, now after trying all the albums, I only like the new one, all other prior albums are not my thing...

    Cool new find for me, reminds me a little of Yotangor and Lunatica, maybe a little Krypteria thrown in... I like the faster songs though, so unlike the few comments below I did not like the Wenn Die Engel Fallen song from the new album, I like most of the others though.

    This is so beautiful and dazing, so I even don't have words to describe this band.

    The new album is by far the worst of all of the other albums :( I waited so long for the new album and I am disappointed ! I miss songs like Wild Birds, So Long, Surrender in Dance, My Favorite Dream....

    The new album is good but not as good at the 2 previous ones. Wenn die Engel Fallen! Best song of the new album! [2]
