German genre-fusing visionaries LORD OF THE LOST are ending 2022 with a big bang,
releasing their eighth studio album, Blood & Glitter, virtually overnight on December 30.
Following extensive touring throughout the year, including as special guest of IRON
MAIDEN, and the great success of their last album, JUDAS (#2 Official German Album
Charts), the band now turns 180 degrees both visually and thematically. Following their
mythologically and theologically influenced previous albums, on Blood & Glitter, the band
fully embraces their deeply-rooted love for 70s glam rock visuals and the sound of the 80s
and its electronic, goth and new wave musical offshoots, without abandoning relevant metal
elements. In addition to Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, Blood & Glitter was produced and
recorded at the Sonic Pump Studios in Helsinki. What matters is what an album means in the
long run, not how high its "value" is on release day." Title track "Blood & Glitter ' opens the
album in an immediately catchy manner, before "Leave Your Hate In The Comments" makes
a strong statement by addressing the increasing hate culture in social media. Blood & Glitter
features a variety of very special guests such as Heaven Shall Burn singer Marcus Bischoff
on "The Future Of A Past Life", Andy La Plegua of Combichrist on "Reset The Preset" and
Subway To Sally's Ally Storch on violin for "Save Our Souls'.
