Danish metal band formed in the early 1990s, initially rooted in melodic death metal and later incorporating power, progressive and gothic elements. Noted for the interplay between growled vocals and clean singing and for melodic/keyboard-driven arrangements.

Review-cited lineup/contributors include the Sandager brothers (Mikkel and Morten), growl singer/bassist Rene Pedersen, guitarists Martin Buus and Jakob Molbjerg, and drummer Mike Park Nielsen. Architect Of Lies (2008) is described as a confirmation of the band's relevance in the European metal scene.

The available review (Architect Of Lies, 2008) praises Mercenary's evolution from melodic death into a more melodic/progressive/power direction. Highlights include skilled interplay between growled and clean vocals, keyboard-driven melodies, and strong technical performances. Architect Of Lies is presented as a confirmation of the band's relevance in the European metal scene.

For:fans of melodic death metal, progressive/power metal listeners and open-minded metalheads
