[L.O.S.T.]

Salut,

Consideram ca anul 2005 a fost unul foarte bun pentru L.O.S.T.: 12 concerte, un album, aparitia pe o compilatie, recenzii bune, piese noi, si ceea ce este cel mai important, ne-am apropiat foarte mult de voi, cei care ne ascultati, si am simtit si din partea voastra o caldura care ne-a bucurat enorm la concertele la care ne-am intalnit, pe diverse site-uri sau chiar fata in fata.

Prin urmare, cel mai important lucru pe care vrem sa-l spunem cu ocazia Sarbatorilor este un imens "MULTUMIM" voua tuturor, celor care ati venit la concerte, ati cumparat cd-urile originale si ne-ati sustinut cu diverse ocazii.

Sa nu uitam evident si de celelalte doua "entitati" cu o mare importanta pe scena metal autohtona: persoanele implicate in organizarea de concerte, manageri sau graficieni, pe de o parte, si restul de trupe prietene, pe de alta parte, cu care am avut onoarea sa impartim scena in acest an.

Tuturor va uram Craciun Fericit, sa vi se indeplineasca toate dorintele, multa sanatate si bafta.

Impreuna vom fi mai puternici !

Support the underground !

Toate cele bune,

BB, Vlad, Dragos, George - L.O.S.T.

Aus Rumí¤nien dringt ja metaltechnisch nicht gerade viel zu uns. NEGURA BUNGET kennt jeder, der etwas mit Blackmetal anfangen kann, und nicht gerade zum ROCK-HARD-Klientel gehí¶rt, aber – das war es dann auch schon im Grunde.


Umso „spannender“ war es also für mich, ein weiteres „Metal-Signal“ aus Rumí¤nien zu vernehmen, welches da in Gestalt der aktuellen MCD von L.O.S.T., „Last Breath“, kam.

L.O.S.T. haben sich im Mí¤rzen des Jahres 2004 gegründet. Sie bestehen im Moment aus BB Hanneman (Gitarre, Gesang; ehemals ADRENALINE, CRONOS, ABIGAIL, ICON OF SIN, MAGMA), Vlad Buşcă (BaíŸgitarre, Gesang; ehemals ABIGAIL, TOMADO, CRONOS), Dragoş Hălmagi (Keyboard; ehemals ABIGAIL) und George Angel Tudor (Schlagzeug, Gesang; ehemals ABIGAIL, DUST). Die meisten Bandmitglieder kí¶nnen bereits auf etwa zehn Jahre der aktiven Musiktí¤tigkeit in der rumí¤nischen Szene verweisen. Ganz neu und grün hinter den Ohren ist man also nicht. Mittlerweile hat man ein Repertoire von elf Liedern fertig, von denen man einige bei der Einstandsschau der Kapelle in Bukarest im November letzten Jahres prí¤sentiert hat.

Bei der Scheibe scheint es sich um die erste Verí¶ffentlichung der Rumí¤nen zu handeln. Es ist eine einundzwanzigminütige MCD, welche eine nicht sehr spannende, aber durchaus professionelle Gestaltung aufweist. Die Texte der Lieder sind im Beiheft enthalten. Musikalisch gesehen handelt es sich bei L.O.S.T. um rauhen, aber melodischen Death-/Blackmetal mit atmosphí¤rischem, zuweilen ein wenig gotisch inspirierten, Flair. Parallelen kí¶nnte man vielleicht zu mittleren SAMAEL oder aber ALASTIS, seltener alte MOONSPELL, ziehen. Vor allem die Stimme ist überwiegend dem Blackmetal zuzuordnen, in der Musik selbst dominieren meist eher die Deathmetalelemente.

Das erste Stück, „Ziua Ce Vine“, fí¤ngt hypnotisch, langsam und atmosphí¤risch an, und steigert sich dann zu einem kalten und aggressiven Black-Deathmetal-Stück. Besonders interessant und originell ist die Verwendung der rumí¤nischen Sprache. Gefí¤llt mir wirklich gut.

Nun folgt mit Titel Nummer zwei, „Clipa“, das meines Erachtens beste Stück von „Last Breath“. Ebenfalls in Rumí¤nisch gehalten, übersteigert es an Atmosphí¤re und Intensití¤t sogar noch den Vorgí¤ngertitel, und ist auíŸerdem das wohl schwarzmetallischste Stück dieser MCD.

Lied drei entlarvt sich leider als das langweiligste Stück der Scheibe. Hí¤tte man sich getrost schenken kí¶nnen. Gesungen ist es übrigens in englischer Sprache.

Lied vier, „Dreams In Black“, ist von den drei vertretenen englischsprachigen Stücken das beste. Es ist ein richtiger Ohrwurm, bei welchem insbesondere der klare, tiefe Gesang des Kehrverses besticht. Sehr gut!

Lied fünf, wieder in Englisch gehalten, ist zwar besser als der dritte Titel, aber dennoch nicht gerade ein Hí¶hepunkt, besonders im Hinblick auf den simplen und kurzen Text.

Insgesamt liefern L.O.S.T. ein hí¶renswertes, wirklich gutes, einiges an Potenzial offenbarendes Album ab, welches durch die teilweise Verwendung der rumí¤nischen Muttersprache der Band sogar mit etwas Originalití¤t glí¤nzen kann. Black- und Deathmetaller sowie vielleicht hí¤rtere Tí¶ne favorisierende Gothicmetaller kí¶nnen hier ruhig mal reinhí¶ren.

SUMMARY:
L.O.S.T. is a band from Romania, a country, from which I don't know too many metal bands. Actually I know only the famous NEGURA BUNGET, and well, they are really great. So now the number of Romanian metal bands increased for me personally from one to two.
L.O.S.T. were founded in March 2004. All the band members, however, gained musical experience before in domestic metal groups like ADRENALINE, CRONOS, ABIGAIL, ICON OF SIN, MAGMA, TOMADO or DUST. So these guys are no freshmen. This MCD, entitled „Last Breath“, seems to be the band's first release. It presents us five songs, from which two are presented in the Romanian mother-tongue of the guys. The music could be described as conglomerate of black and death metal. With a slight touch of gothic and atmosphere. The best song of this MCD in my opinion is the Romanian-language title „Clipa“. It's about both rough energy and great atmosphere. Also I like the usage of Romanian vocals here, what makes the band more original in comparison to most of the metal bands, singing (too) often in English. „Clipa“ is the most black metal orientated title of „Last Breath“. Other great songs are „Ziua Ce Vine“ and „Dreams In Black“. Unfortunately, the rest of the MCD, the third and the fifth song, are quite boring and cannot keep the high standard of the rest.
All in all „Last Breath“ is a really recommendable release, which shows a sure feeling for good melodies, „hit quality“ and atmosphere, and which is, by the usage of Romanian vocals in two of the songs, also somehow original.

L.O.S.T. – Last Breath

Goth doom inspired debut breathes plenty of life

Romanian (Bucharest) quartet L.O.S.T. came together for the first time in March 2004 when vocalist/bassist Vlad Busca, keyboardist Dragos Halmagi and drummer/vocalist George Angel Tudor rehearsed for the first time. A short time later, guitarist/vocalist BB Hanneman joined and the band’s line-up was complete. After a two track promo titled Ziua ce vine was released late in 2004, the band completed work on another three songs that would be combined with the two promo tracks on their debut EP Last Breath which would see the light of day in March 2005.

The slow, meandering beat of the Ziua ce vine (which also featured on the promo EP) is eventually joined by the menacing down tuned guitars and haunting keyboards that are L.O.S.T.’s signature gothic doom sound. Clipa continues the eerie, deathly vibe with a slightly quicker pace, and like the opening track, it is also sung/growled in the band’s native tongue. The title track’s soft acoustic intro soon makes way for a plooding, grinding riff that builds and drops with every phrase as it takes you through wave after wave of emotive highs and lows, easily marking itself as the strongest track on offer. The early Therion and My Dying Bride qualities continue with the decidedly quicker but no less interesting Dreams In Black and the doom laden closing track, No More.

L.O.S.T. has crafted an interesting and enjoyable debut EP in Last Breath. It would be wise for fans of material that mixes early My Dying Bride and Therion laced with smatterings of black and thrash metal to invest their time into checking out this one! If this EP is any indication, I for one will definitely be keen to check out their debut long player whenever that surfaces!

L.O.S.T. is a Romanian band, formed in 2004 playing melodic metal with some other heavy influences now and than. The material I got presented to me was split into two different pieces. The first one, being a two-track promo is presented as a copy-cd, whereas the second one, the actual album contains five songs. Might L.O.S.T. be a band that has a little bit for everyone?

Right from the start it’s clear that the band has put some real effort in the recordings of the MCD. The intro of the first song ‘Ziua ce Vine’ (which is also on the two-track promo, as well as ‘Last Breath’) is very impressive and would do very well live, I suppose. The guitar parts are quite slow but this could only be considered as an advantage. In this way, the chords are very powerful and the perfect timing of the guitar player gives the music this extra powerful dimension. The influence of the keyboards is not to be underestimated. The empty spaces that exist due to the guitar parts are well filled with mystical keyboards.

Whether being a fan of these sounds or not, it sure is a fine way of composing songs. As the music goes on, I get a little bit disappointed as the songs speed up. The guitar parts are suddenly very fast, as well as the drums and the vocals come in. My personal opinion is that the vocals do not exactly fit with the other music. The death metal vocals are brutal of course, but from another category than the precise music that surrounds the singer. Personally, I wouldn’t combine death metal vocals with melodic and mystical music.
The other songs are somehow structured the same way. I recognize a decent bunch of riffs, although I do think that the band is playing to many riffs in the same way. Therefore, it’s a good thing that this MCD last for only five songs. Otherwise, I think this one could bother me after a few tries.

So, L.O.S.T. did a fine job with a great production of their ‘Last Breath’. I do think that, for a big 12-song release, the band has to come up with more variation and maybe little softer vocals. But due to the fact that the instruments seem to fit very well to each other, I would consider L.O.S.T. as a band to keep an eye on.

L.O.S.T. - Last Breath
Release: 2005
Label: Meta4 Productions
By: Anders
Posted: Feb 11, 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heavy death/doom metal permeated with a thick coat of melancholy is what this rather new Romanian band delivers. The band was formed in 2004 and this is their first release, if we don't count their 2 track promo-release. "Last Breath" consists of 5 atmospheric tracks, which fit the Danish winter perfectly.

The atmospheres are bleak, drenched over the music as dark thick clouds. The down-tuned guitars leads the battle, with its well-weighed riffs and good melodies, the guitar work is pretty good and well-written and carries the songs a long way. The drumming is simple, but fits the music well, shifts pace when it's needed and the cymbal work is nice and varied. The bass pummels below the guitar, always audible and quite interesting to follow and plays a big part in the overall sound of L.O.S.T. The music is also spiced up with some delicate synth work here and there, and that works fine in this sinister environment the band creates. The growls that accompany the music aren't of the best quality, slowly pronounced, which is good as it is easy to understand, besides the 2 tracks where the lyrics are in Romanian that is. Though the slow and almost narrating growls, sounds forced once in awhile and doesn't seem to fit in, the more spins the CD gets, the better the vocals fits. The growl pursued in the first 'Ziua Ce Vine' works very well and sounds good, opposed to the vocals in the last track 'No More...', which really tests the listener.

Overall a good debut mini-album the band here has made, we are offered good and melancholic death/doom with a nice and bleak atmosphere surrounding it. Good song writing and effective and well executed tracks, this is for sure a band to watch on the future, they could very well end up delivering an album or 2, which will end up with a classical status.

L.O.S.T. – Last Breath (Meta4 Productions) review by Sam Doherty

Normally when I get something to review, the first time I listen to it I can identify the genre, and the second time I can come up with a couple of bands that are similar. LOST had me completely thrown until I’d listened to it about ten times – the only thing that I was certain of was that it was good. Very good, in fact. Eventually it came to me that there was something about it, which reminded me of something that I knew, in a vague, insubstantial way. Nothing daunted, I carried on listening (meanwhile the band had anxiously contacted Live4Metal in case we’d forgotten them) until at long last my synapses began to function and I realised what I’d been thinking of all along. There’s something about the music, particularly the structure that reminds me of early Tiamat (Clouds, for example).

Quando ho visto decadente la cover art di questo "Last Breath" e scoperto la provenienza della band (Romania), mi sono fatto immediatamente un'idea di quello che sarei andato ad ascoltare - idea che si í¨ trasformata in realtí  dopo i 21 minuti di questo mini - cd: un miscuglio di gothic (soprattutto) e death, che solo in pochi momenti raggiunge una discreta coesione, assestandosi su un livello sufficiente ma non particolarmente esaltante. Quando partono le prime note dell'opener "Ziua Ce Vine" ritorna alla mente qualcosa dei primi My Dying Bride, ma l'intensití  degli albionici í¨ solo un pallido ricordo; brani come la titletrack, lenta & spenta, o la pií¹ sincopata "Dreams In Black", privi di forza espressiva (peccato capitale), con una voce in growling ma priva di mordente e tappeti di tastiere un po'insipidi e sciatti (in ogni brano), scivolano via facendosi ascoltare (forse perchí¨ sono solo 5) ma senza lasciare molte tracce del loro passaggio. Onestamente non saprei dire neanche dire se ci sono le possibilití  per un lavoro di qualití  sulla lunga distanza, qua non ci sono picchi di genio o lampi di classe bensí¬ una solidití  che si tramuta quasi sempre in un deja-vu troppo marcato, appesantito da alcuni difetti di non poco conto (poca omogeneití  musica-voce, poca intensití ). Boh, vedremo.

note : 17/20
Alors míªme si tous les membres se connaissent depuis trí¨s longtemps et qu’ils ont officié dans le míªme précédent groupe du nom d’Abigail. Il ne faut surtout pas retirer le mérite qui est du a L.O.S.T. .Car ce n’est pas un simple disque de death metal mélodique que vous avez entre les mains mais bel et bien un joyau taillé a coup de riff dévastateur. C’est simple il a tourné en boucle toute la journée.

Il faut dire que dí¨s le premier morceau le groupe place la barre trí¨s haut avec un intro trí¨s atmosphérique préparant idéalement le terrain pour ce qui va suivre. Du death metal bien puissant et mélodique a souhait. Sans íªtre ultra rapide le groupe impose son tempo, marque distinctive qui s’avéra plus que payante sur la durée. En effet on sort de l’écoute enchanté par la musique trí¨s bien structurée de L.O.S.T. . Il n’y a aucune fioriture que se soit dans le jeu ou dans les orientations musicales. Car míªme l’intro í  la guitare acoustique de « Last Breath » est magnifique. Et pourtant le pari n’est pas gagné d’avance c’est toujours un risque d’introduire des parties acoustiques dans une musique extríªme. Les changements de tempos d’un morceau í  l’autre sont notable mais ils tendent plus í  prouver que le groupe sait varier les plaisirs. Le titre « Dreams in black » trí¨s mélodique et le plus raide de tous tranche avec « Ziua ce vine » qui est plus lent et plus lourd. Non un sans fautes
Le chant est lui aussi parfaitement exécuté et il n’en ressort que du bon. Míªme en chant clair c’est impeccable, enfin il faut reconnaitre que ce n’est pas du chant aigue. C’est un chant qui reste assez appuyé.
La grande qualité du groupe et í§a je suis sur que je ne vais pas íªtre le seul í  le remarquer c’est que le groupe s’est forgé une identité musicale qui le rend unique. Que se soit le son ou la manií¨re de composer c’est unique.

Voilí  en espérant que le groupe perdure et que l’on ai des nouvelles trí¨s rapidement vous pouvez vous ruer sur cet EP qui est ENORME !!!!!

When I have seen the cover decadent art of this "Last Breath" and uncovered the origin of band (Rumania), is made immediately an idea me of what I would have gone to listen - idea that has been transformed in truth after the 21 minuteren of these miniums - cd: a concoction of gothic (above all) and death, than in little moments only catches up one discreet cohesion, arranging on a sufficient level but not particularly thrilling. When the first notes of opener "the Ziua Ce leave Wines" return to the mind something of the first My Dying Bride, but the intensity of the albionici is only a pale memory; brani like the titletrack, slow & extinguished, or the most sincopata "Dreams In Black", you deprive of expressive force (sin understood them), with a voice in growling but it deprives of mordant and insipid and sciatti carpets of keyboards a po' (in every brano), slip via making oneself to perhaps listen (why 5 are alone) but without to leave many traces of their passage. Honestly I would not know to say neanche to say if there are the possibilities for a quality job on the long distance, here not are peaks of genius or lightning bolts of class but a solidity that tramuta nearly always in a deja-vu too much marked, weighted down from some defects not little account (little homogeneity music-voice, little intensity). Boh, we will see.

note: 17/20
Then even if all the members know each other for a very long time and that they officiated in the same precedent name of Abigail groups. One should not especially withdraw the merit which is A L.O.S.T. Car it is not a simple melody disc of death metal which you have between the hands but indeed a cut jewel has blow of riff devastator. It is simple it turned in loop all the day.

It should be said that as of the first piece the group places the bar very high with a very atmospheric intro preparing the ground ideally for what will follow. Quite powerful death metal and melody A wish. Without being ultra rapid the group imposes its tempo, marks distinctive which proved more than paying over the duration. Indeed one leaves listening enchanted by the music structured very well L.O.S.T.. There is no ornament that is in the play or the musical orientations. Because even the intro with the acoustic guitar of "Last Breath" is splendid. And yet the bet is not won in advance it is always a risk to introduce acoustic parts into an extreme music. The changes of tempos from one piece to another are notable but they tend more to prove that the group can vary the pleasures. The title the stiffest "Dreams in black" very melody and of all section with "Ziua this fortifies" which is slower and heavier. Not one without faults
The song is him carried out also perfectly and it arises from it only from the good. Even in clear song it is impeccable, finally it should be recognized that it is not song acute. It is a song which remains enough supported.
The great quality of the group and that I am on I will not be to notice only it it is that the group forged a musical identity which makes it single. That is the sound or the manner of composing it is single.

Here by hoping that the perdure group and that one have news very quickly you can ruer on this EP which is ENORMOUS!!!!!

L.O.S.T. - LAST BREATH

THis is a crushing band that comes from Romania.Their music can be described as modern death metal with some thrashcore elements and excellent keyboards that are an essential instrument here. The guitars sound really huge delivering riff after riff on each composition, driving the pace of each of the tunes. The drumming is precise and there are multiple arrangements created by using double bass with clockwork precission. The keyboards add a lot of atmosphere to each tune and also some melody here and there making each composition really original. Some of the climatic parts reminded me a little bit to Tiamat but taken to the extreme. The sound of the recording is direct and loud, specially in the guitars that sound really loud. A band that you should listen and don´t miss.

L.O.S.T. is a new band from Romania that plays a very atmospheric kind of Death Metal, slow and heavy, slightly melodic, but never becoming a Doom/Death band as we usually understand it. ‘Last Breath’ can remind me of albums like ‘Symphony Masses’ by THERION, but without the orchestral parts, more simple and slower. Other groups like early CREMATORY (‘Transmigration’) or even ACHERON (‘Those Who Have Risen’) also come to my mind when listening to this. Lyrics are written in English but also in Romanian. The production and the presentation are quite professional, and even if their music is rather simple, they seem to be skilled and experienced musicians. This MCD is their first release, but it seems they are not newcomers, being all of them ex-members of a Doom/Death band called ABIGAIL which released some demos and singles during the nineties. Quite recommendable for those who like Death Metal with keyboards and no fast parts but still dark and heavy.

Reviewed by Oana on Wednesday 31 May 2006

In a country without any tradition in the metal genre, the members of the recently founded band LO.S.T. have managed to achieve more than 10 years of experience in various gothic or death metal bands. Most of them are history today or on an attempt to revive with new lineups, as the original members seem to have found their path within L.O.S.T., a melodic death metal bands that sums up everything the metal of the mid-90's had to offer. If they had succeeded to bring in the best of it or not, the debut EP Last Breath (2005) would tell after a throughgoing overview of the 5 tracks included.

What would characterize best the music on the E.P. is primarily the melody given by the keyboards and here it lays the first negative remark I'd make (there are a few, honestly). Without being a virtuoso of his instrument, Dragos Halmagi is playing his part no more, no less than correctly, lacking a bit of a feeling in interpretation. At least this is how I perceive the keyboards of L.O.S.T., maybe because of a certain resemblance with Katrin's (Crematory) parts on the old albums.
In rest the musical theme is developing smoothly, without any deviations from a certain recipe, a riffery in mid-tempo heavily supported by the bass, pretty equal on all the tracks.The two vocalists, BB Hanneman (also guitar) and Vlad Busca (also bass) play their scores very skillfully and I might add they give a certain freshness to a product instrumentally cramped couple of years ago. I would love to say that I have remarked the special contribution to the history of the genre, but I haven't. L.O.S.T.'s E.P. is somewhere on the borderline between the doom-death of the 95-96 era and the newer melodic death metal, well played, well composed, but still with no step out of the canons of the genre. One cannot tell that L.O.S.T. sounds like a certain band, though I have read some out of place comparisons with Therion. It has nothing to do with the Swedish band. My favourite track on the E.P. is definitely "Ziua ce vine", but the other song sung in Romanian, Clipa, also deserves a mention. The production is quite poor, too low and the bass too much brought in front of the rest of the instruments, while the drums have their specific sound that can make me recognize a Romanian band out of 100 others. And this is not a compliment.

If I would have to rank this product, I would be in trouble, as it would deserve a good mark compared to other similar products on the local market, but no more than a mediocre one on a worldwide scene. Still, if you are into keys, melody and catchy hummable refrains, L.O.S.T. can be a suitable option for you.

Género: Melodic Death DoomGothic Metal
6.50 / 10

L.O.S.T es una banda rumana compuesta por cuatro ex miembros procedentes de la banda de doom del mismo paí­s, Abigail. Este nuevo proyecto mama de las influencias de Abigail de donde sacan su pesadez y oscuridad para mezclarlo con unos toques de death melódico adornado por teclados y alguna que otra influencia.
Los rumanos nos presentan en este su primer MCD, editado en el pasado 2005, un death metal lento y melódico mezclado con tintes de doom-gothic. Veinte minutos repartidos en cinco temas creando música donde prevalecen los medios tiempos llenos de pesadas y sencillas armoní­as y donde destacan también, las simples melodí­as de teclado que consiguen dar a todos los temas una atmósfera bastante profunda y oscura.
En el apartado vocal predomina el registro de voz enfadada y desesperada del señor Hanneman que es completado por coros y algunos otros registros por Vlad, bajista de la banda y George baterí­a. Las letras de los dos primeros temas de este Last Breath están escritas en su lengua materna, sin embargo en los tres últimos ya han decidido utilizar el inglés, una lástima pues su lengua les da un carácter más interesante y original.
El sonido que me ha venido a la cabeza al escuchar este cd, es el que hací­an allá por el principio de la década de los 90, en el comienzo de su carrera musical, los alemanes Crematory, incluso alguna cosilla a los Therion del Lepaca Kliffoth. Esa mezcla de death metal atmosférico lleno de teclados con algunas tendencias pertenecientes al doom más cercano al gothic metal.
El resultado final es la creación de un mcd que suena añejo y que reúne una serí­e de influencias que van desde el doom al ghotic, pero donde prevalece el death melódico, en definitiva, Last Breath está lleno de melodí­as muy sencillas y de fácil escucha, pero de poca complejidad creativa.
Este Mcd no supone un descubrimiento ni tampoco asombra lo más mí­nimo pero no se le puede negar que lo que quieren hacer, lo hacen decentemente y que incluso Last Breath tiene temas y momentos interesantes, sobre todo, si disfrutaste en su dí­a con los primeros Crematory que es entonces cuando debes hacerte con este MCD, pero si no es así­ este álbum es otro de es esos que pasará sin gloria alguna por tus manos.
Veremos si editan algo más en un futuro ,su evolución hace más atractiva e interesante su propuesta y pulen su música.Su intención es buena y de momento el resultado son unos decentes cinco temas.

(L.O.S.T is a Rumanian band composed by four ex- members coming from the band of doom of he himself country, Abigail. This new project sucks of the influences of Abigail from where they remove his slowness and the dark to mix it with I touch of death melódico adorned by keyboards and some that another influence.
The Rumanians present/display to us the past in this their first MCD, published in 2005, death mixed slow and melódico metal with dyes of doom-gothic. Twenty minutes distributed in five subjects creating music where the half heavy full times of and simple harmonies prevail and where also emphasize, simple melodí­as of keyboard that are able to give to all the subjects a quite deep and dark atmosphere.
In the vocal section the registry of voice gotten upset and desperate of Mr. Hanneman predominates who is completed by choirs and some other registries by Vlad, bear of the band and George battery. The letters of both first subjects of this Last Breath are written in their maternal language, nevertheless in the three last ones already have decided to use the English, a pity then its language gives a more interesting and original character them.
The sound that me has at the top come when listening this CD, is the one whom they did there by the principle of the decade of the 90, in the beginning of its musical race, the Crematory Germans, even some cochair to the Therion of the Lepaca Kliffoth. That mixture of death full atmospheric metal of keyboards with some tendencies pertaining to doom closest to gothic metal.
The final result is the creation of mcd that sounds aged and that reunites a series of influences that go from doom to ghotic, but where death prevails melódico, really, Last very simple Breath is full of melodí­as and easy listening, but of little creative complexity.
This Mcd not does not suppose discovery neither either astonishes more minimum but not him it can to deny that what wants to do, they do it decently and that Last Breath even has subjects and interesting moments, mainly, if you enjoyed in its day the first Crematory that is then when you must hacerte with this MCD, but is not thus this album is another one of is those that some will pass without glory through your hands.
We will see if they publish something more in the future, its evolution makes its proposal more attractive and interesting and polish its music. Its intention is good and at the moment the result is decent five subjects.)

Salut,

Suntem incantati sa anuntam ca avem un nou membru in trupa! Este vorba de foarte talentatul chitarist Andrei Ganga, care este deasemenea un foarte bun si vechi prieten de-al nostru, alaturi de care am mai cantat in trecut in diverse trupe (Cronos, Abigail, Tornado). Suntem siguri ca am luat cea mai buna decizie si suntem nerabdatori sa vedem trupa L.O.S.T. mult mai puternica din toate punctele de vedere. Andrei, bine ai venit!

Prin urmare, ne pregatim foarte intens de urmatorul mare eveniment, si anume Festivalul Monsters of Rock de la Varna, Bulgaria, pe malul Marii Negre, care va avea loc in perioada 01-09 august. Vom canta in ziua de 7 august, alaturi de trupe celebre cum ar fi Morbid Angel, Holy Moses, Primal Fear si Fleshgore. Speram sa avem parte de cat mai mult public si ca multi romani vor fi prezenti la fata locului. Biletele sunt deja disponibile prin Metalhead.

Pana atunci, am demarat deja lucrul pentru noul album, intitulat "Remains of Pain", pe care il vom inregistra in acelasi studio Recreate Records, si ne-am programat ca in aceasta luna sa avem deja doua melodii finisate pentru un cd promotional.

Cam acestea au fost ultimele noutati din tabara noastra, nu ne ramane decat sa speram intr-o vara cat mai "fierbinte" din punct de vedere metalifer, sa ne intalnim cat mai multi la Monsters of Rock si nu in ultimul rand sa va oferim cat mai curand un album full-length de cea mai buna calitate.

Toate cele bune,

L.O.S.T.
