Lord of the Lost : Opvs Noir Vol.1 - CD
Ref: 24746
The first of 3 volumes of special albums for LORD OF THE LOST! What is the essence of LORD OF THE LOST in 2025? That is one of the questions OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 fearlessly begins to answer. Once again, the band proves not only musical excellence but also masterful craftsmanship: Produced by Chris Harms, recorded, mixed, and mastered at the legendary CHAMELEON STUDIOS in Hamburg, the 11 tracks hit with a force and brilliance that immediately transport us into a dark yet colourful ballroom. From there, the tone is set: Dark Wave Metal on an amphitheater scale. OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 not only showcases the LOTL sextet but also a variety of top-tier guest artists: The passionate essence of the album is distilled in “Light can only shine in the Darkness”, featuring an emotionally gripping collaboration with WITHIN TEMPTATION. Sharon den Adel's crystal-clear voice forms the perfect Yang to Chris Harms' deep Timbre-Yin. The Dark A-Cappella ensemble STIMMGEWALT lends a ghostly atmosphere to the theatrical “Moonstruck”, while Whiplasher Bernadotte (DEATHSTARS) transforms “Damage” into an industrial inferno with his unmistakable voice. Anna Maria Rose (TALES OF TIME) adds a fragile, ethereal touch to “The Sadness in Everything”, and cellist extraordinaire Tina Guo, known for her live performances with Hans Zimmer, enhances the delicate intensity of “Ghosts” with her unique cello playing. With “Lords of Fyre”, a collaboration with FEUERSCHWANZ, an exciting preview of the major co-headlining tour of both bands in fall 2025 is offered. Everything is new, yet every note feels familiar. Behind each chorus awaits a surprise, in every line, a new door opens to further uncharted paths within the LOTL universe. This band takes the expectations of its ever-growing fanbase and molds them into songs that transcend genre boundaries – and turn moments into monuments that carry us all along: No one lost behind!
