In the past four years, LORD OF THE LOST has experienced the most successful period in the band’s history – and lead singer CHRIS HARMS has shown no signs of taking a creative break. Today, Harms is releasing “Lunamor”, the fourth single from his debut solo album 1980, which is dropping this Friday, February 7. The song blends dark, hypnotic synthesizers with an evocative melody, once again highlighting Harms’ deep connection to the electronic sounds of the 1980s. Following the previous singles, “Lunamor” takes an even more enigmatic and romantic turn, revealing yet another intriguing facet of the album. Like all tracks on 1980, “Lunamor” reflects Harms’ unique ability to create music driven by pure passion – free from conventions or genre constraints. He crafts a sonic atmosphere deeply rooted in synth-pop, new wave, and goth to frame his infectiously catchy melodies, maintaining a strong potential for radio airplay. With each new track, Harms proves that 1980 is more than just a tribute to a legendary decade – it is also a testament to his artistic versatility, marking a bold and captivating chapter in his musical journey. CHRIS HARMS about the new single “Lunamor”:
“Sometimes it only takes a single word to trigger an entire song. I remember almost exactly a year ago, I was lying alone at night in a deck chair at the stern of the “70,000 Tons Of Metal” cruise ship and was enchanted by the sight of the Caribbean moon. The words “Luna” and “Amor” merged in my mind’s eye to form “Lunamor” and I thought “Wow, what a wonderful title for a song!” – and a few months later it became a whole story with a soundtrack, which now finds a home on my solo album. From the metal cruise to the synthpop album – wonderful!” |
