Lost Society

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

Pounding riffs weighing several tons? Check! Catchy choruses and symphonic flashes? Check! Relentless eruptions of utterly chaotic, yet catchy modern metal? Check! Passionate performances by elaborate musicians? Check! You got it right: over the last twelve adrenaline-filled years, braindead™ Finnish cannonball squad LOST SOCIETY has been fearlessly exploring the lights and shadows of the world of heavy metal. Still, despite the dirty deeds of the past years and the praise of legendary colleagues such as  Kreator’s Mille Petrozza and Sepultura’s Andreas Kisser, it now feels like the band’s rocket is just about to take off. Enter 2022. The epochs of darkness have just been left behind…

“Our new full-length recording If The Sky Came Down would not have become like this had it not been for the unfortunate events of the past two years”, nods guitarist-vocalist Samy Elbanna, who formed LOST SOCIETY in 2010. “We have indeed put together a year and a half of mental turbulence and a daunting tragedy for one album…” Samy, who is a modest Finn, must be corrected a bit: for one hell of an album! In other words this is not a vague opinion but a cold fact: LOST SOCIETY – featuring guitarist Arttu Lesonen, bassist Mirko Lehtinen and drummer Taz Fagerström as well – is about to unleash the most ambitious, versatile and innovative record of their career. Well, so far.”We wanted to expand the band’s musical horizon without abandoning the vicious roots of our energetic sound. The result? Well, according to my very non-objective view, If The Sky Came Down turned out to be a giant step forward from previous albums, and we’ve now found the heart and soul of LOST SOCIETY. Period!” “Believe me: we did not leave any stone unturned while crafting and sharpening If The Sky Came Down. Every time there was a tentative new song on the table, we challenged ourselves all over again to make it shinier, more inventive and whatnot. And only after an extremely intense writing and arranging period, we started meticulous pre-production which didn’t end until we felt there’s all in for the jackpot!”
