Fantastic debut album from this Polish band that's recently toured with their countrymen Riverside. A wonderful mix of ethnic world music, melancholy prog and a modern Tool-esque heaviness that works supremely well on this very self-assured debut. The Middle Eastern vocals and motifs are just wonderful and this excellent album is easily one of favorite discoveries of the year.

Full stream of the 'Hiraeth' album via 'Prog' magazine:  http://www.teamrock.com/news/2015-11-20/lion-shepherd-stream-debut-in-full" rel="nofollow - https://www.teamrock.com/news/2015-11-20/lion-shepherd-stream-debut-in-full .  Thumbs Up Described in various places as a mixture of Progressive Rock, Metal and Psychedelic Rock, and that seems pretty accurate to me. Already being evaluated in Crossover  - added to their chart about three months ago and with two 'move' votes (and two team members still to vote) they could be on their way elsewhere (Eclectic, I presume - or maybe Heavy Prog?...since there isn't really enough actual Metal in this album to be of any real interest to the blacksmiths). The evaluation can be followed at  http://progfreak.com/Lion-Shepherd-164707.html?path=pa/recent" rel="nofollow - http://progfreak.com/Lion-Shepherd-164707.html?path=pa/recent ...unless it goes over to Eclectic, since they don't use the progfreak site to track their evaluations.

Edit: Samuel - you can access the Crossover team thread if you want to and read any comments that may have been posted there by the two members who voted 'move'. I can't access that part of the forum myself. Embarrassed

Lion Shepherd was formed in 2014 in Warsaw (Poland) by Kamil Haidar (vocals, lyrics) and Mateusz Owczarek (electric guitars, acoustic guitars).

October 25, 2015 the band released debut album ''Hiraeth''. It's a mix of ethnic world music, melancholy prog and a modern Tool-esque heaviness with the Middle Eastern vocals and motifs. The album got a very positive response, earned high notes and good reviews from Polish and foreign music portals, communities and magazines.

From October 15, 2015 band toured with Riverside and The Sixxis in Great Britain, Germany, Portugal and France.
