[MEDIA RELEASE] Lord of the Lost unveils new album trilogy, beginning with Opvs Noir Vol. 1 to be released on August 8, 2025 via Napalm Records.
A work, a transformation, a re-entry into the melancholic self – Opvs Noir is in no danger of becoming an offspring of understatement, neither in its title nor in its musical opulence. And rightly so: Not only will it be the first album as a six-piece band, but it also marks the beginning of an entire album trilogy, set to be released in multiple editions, including, of course, strictly limited collector’s items.
Each volume contains 11 songs, totaling 33 tracks that not only conclude the delightfully eccentric chapter of Blood & Glitter, but also initiate an uncompromising return to the dark core of the band. While Lord of the Lost previously found themselves in the spotlight of vast open stages, Opvs Noir Vol. 1, set for release on August 8, 2025 via NapalmRecords, represents a confident descent into previously untouched emotional depths.
Chris Harms about the album,
Darkness, melancholy, loneliness – all words that often have negative connotations, that we may associate with danger, sadness and loss, and not without reason. But darkness can also be security, melancholy the warm and sentimental feeling of our memories, and loneliness becomes necessary silence, peace and inner contemplation. Opvs Noir is a travel guide, or perhaps also a travelogue, through the dark sides of our inner world, which so often move precisely in the area of tension between what we emotionally categorize as positive or negative. And with Vol. 1, all of this is just the beginning of this 3-part journey…
