http://dbpedia.org/resource/The_Merry_Sisters_of_Fate an entity of type: Thing
The Merry Sisters of Fate is an album by Irish Celtic band Lúnasa that was released in 2001 on Green Linnet Records. It is the band's third major release, and first with pipe player Cillian Vallely. The record is characterised as particularly rhythm-heavy and showcasing the band experimenting more with rhythm and sound than on previous records, and features numerous instruments atypical to Celtic music, such as lap steel guitar, piano, harmonium and clarinet, played by a number of guest musicians. Rhythm, melody and strings vary as the foreground of the music, which largely consists of Irish tunes.

"While the album expanded the band's aural pallet in small degrees by adding subtle shades of other instruments like lap steel guitar and clarinet, it kept to the band's core driving acoustic sound, emphasizing the pipes, guitar and string bass and the masterful way the band wrapped the instruments around traditional jigs and reels."
