Alcatrazz & Warlord Vocalist GILES LAVERY Teams Up with THOMAS MERGLER in Lavery/Mergler Album “Redemption Day”

Do you really miss the days when heavy metal had some really big and catchy songs to offer? Are you still in search of a great combination of classic heavy metal with power metal, featuring epic vocals and an exotic touch of good old pomp / hard rock as well? Well, if the answer is yes, this is an album for you.

The Lavery / Mergler project consists of songs that vocalist Giles Lavery (Warlord, Alcatrazz, Jack Starr, Dragonsclaw) and multi-instrumentalist Thomas Mergler have been working on for the past couple of years.

Giles’s good friend Ashish Shetty offered some of his songwriting and performance magic as well, bringing life to eight magnificent epic compositions.

Arkeyn Steel Records comment:

“Some months ago the project released a digital single called “Ascendant”. We liked the song so much that we lost no time at all and approached Giles Lavery asking if there was more material available. Giles told us that there were 7 more songs in demo form. We proposed to release all eight songs on a full-length and that was it: Lavery and Mergler started to work on the final production of the songs while Angel Priest started designing the front cover.

We are very happy that we can share the amazing final result with you: an album that will take you back to a golden age of melody and top songwriting.“

Giles Lavery comments about the album:

“This album represents mostly a number of songs from our combined past existences, songs which we felt, for a long time, and for one reason or another… deserved a proper recording, presentation and release, plus some compositions that came together just this past year…feel free to check it out on my bandcamp page for free or any amount you wish to leave… also the CD is out now via the good folks at Arkeyn Steel!”
