LORD OF THE LOST Nominated For Germany’s Eurovision Song Contest Preliminary Round!

Chart-Topping Dark Rock Visionaries LORD OF THE LOST Nominated for Eurovision Song Contest’s German Preliminary Round with their New Single, “Blood & Glitter”!

Germany’s Song for Liverpool!

German genre-fusing dark rock outfit LORD OF THE LOST have been nominated to compete for presenting Germany in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest with the title track of their recent surprise album release, “Blood & Glitter”, which hit #1 on Official German Album Charts.

Chris Harms on the nomination:
“We are a band that has never consciously adapted to anyone or anything. No trend, no scene, no expectation. We have always done what we like ourselves – at all times. That we are now being considered for the biggest music show in the world with our weird genre mix, as authentic and unbowed as we are, is a great honor and we are extremely looking forward to being able to make the ESC pre-selection a little more colorful in many ways. A song like “Blood & Glitter” is very hard for the German TV and radio landscape – it will polarize. And since we love contrasts, it makes it all the more exciting for us. Friends, it’s going to get loud on German television on March 3!”

Formed back in 1956, the international song competition Eurovision Song Contest is one of the biggest music events worldwide. Germany has landed last or second to last six times in the past seven years, but LORD OF THE LOST could very well be the new hope for a better placement in the final – with heavier bands such as Lordi in 2006 and Måneskin in 2021 previously winning the whole competition!

On the band’s eighth album, LORD OF THE LOST enter a new era of exciting 70s glam rock visuals, and add a blend of 80s new wave and pop influences as well as gothic and electronic elements to their own, relevant modern metal style, impressing both fans and critics.

In other news, LORD OF THE LOST have just released a single edit of their song “Leave Your Hate In The Comments”, off of Blood & Glitter. The track was inspired by hateful social media comments, and was also released together with a hilarious music video at the beginning of the year.

The nomination for the German ESC preliminary round adds to the long list of LORD OF THE LOST’s recent successes. In addition to storming the charts at #1 with Blood & Glitter (even harder than with their previous album JUDAS, #2 on Official German Album Charts), the band has been touring extensively, including providing direct support to none other than legendary heavy metal band IRON MAIDEN both in 2022 and on their upcoming 2023 tour. LORD OF THE LOST are also set to play some of the most important European metal festivals such as Wacken and Hellfest.
