“Dream Child” is the latest release to come from prolific composer and guitarist Lars Eric Mattsson which introduces the stunning new female vocalist Adrienn Antal. “Dream Child” represents the most solid album to date from Mattsson, building upon the solid foundation laid by 2005’s “War”. The new album sees symphonic metal mixed with progressive and gothic elements spiced up with world music inflections to create an album which in Mattsson’s own words is ” as complete as possible”. “Dream Child” is a fine blend of interesting and deep compositions within great songs. The album took 15 months to complete with Mattsson taking great care to arrange and record very precisely with many ideas being reworked during this process to bring you the album you hear today. The material on “Dream Child” is better structured and more accessible than before, and with the inclusion of strings and woodwinds (courtesy of The Astral Orchestra) along with better recording and mixing techniques, all show how Mattsson applies the musical influences he has gathered since day one making Mattsson in 2008 a unique experience.
