[MEDIA RELEASE] Lord of the Lost starts the new year with a bang by hitting #2 on the Official German Album Charts with their new covers album Weapons Of Mass Seduction, as label mates Dominium reach #18 with their debut Hey Living People!.
Lord of the Lost finished their most successful year so far by releasing their very first full covers album, featuring songs from legendary Michael Jackson, Judas Priest and Billy Idol among others, on December 29, 2023. Lord of the Lost’s latest original album Blood & Glitter, released exactly one year prior, entered the Official German Album Charts at #1 early 2023, marking one of many significant highlights for the band, among representing Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest finals, breaking into mainstream media, joining Iron Maiden as special guests on tour for the second time as well as playing countless sold-out headline shows. The #2 chart entry is the perfect finish of an exceptional year for the band.
Despite an extremely busy 2023, Lord of the Lost is continuing full speed ahead into 2024, with their fast-selling “15 Years of Lord of the Lost” tour kicking off in March. Besides, the band has plenty of big festival shows coming up in the summer and has been confirmed for two dates in the US later in the year.

Chris Harms has stated,
“With the release of a covers album, we entered the chart week with absolutely no expectations at all. Our main goal was to create this album to make ourselves happy by playing and recording a selection of our favorite songs by other artists. So, the charts were actually secondary. However, starting the year at #2 on the Official German Album Charts is sensational, phenomenal, and unbelievable! We congratulate our colleague Ikke Hüftgold on his well-deserved #1!”
