Lord of the Lost indulge in darkness with the complex 'Bazaar Bizarre', the latest single off their upcoming studio album OPVS NOIR Vol. 1, out this Friday, 8th August 2025 via Napalm Records. Appropriately opulent, the album opener 'Bazaar Bizarre' immediately proves the bands’ sonic recalibration, re-adding their early edge to create somber mysticism in irresistible guise. Lord of the Lost hauntingly unite the children of the night in a sophisticated anthem, reassuring: No one lost behind.

'Bazaar Bizarre' ornately crafts a new doorway into Lord of the Lost’s ever expanding universe – a testament to their ability to constantly uncover new angles while staying true to their roots. Following the success of their #1 Blood & Glitter album (Official German Album Charts) and their celebrated appearance in the finals of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, Lord of the Lost continue to push boundaries with unmatchable versatility. OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 is the first album of an exciting album trilogy, featuring several strictly limited special editions.

Vocalist Chris Harms commented on the single: “‘Bazaar Bizarre’ is too long, too complex, and too weird to be an album opener – almost like a mix between an acoustic hidden-object painting by Hieronymus Bosch, Apocalypse Now, and the underground troll market from the Hellboy universe. Everything hurts and is somehow eerie, but at the same time too fascinating to want to escape.

"We could’ve picked a simple and accessible song to kick things off – but we didn’t want that. We wanted a long cinematic trailer for the ears, one that instantly makes it clear what kind of world all three parts of OPVS NOIR will drag you into. And 'Bazaar Bizarre' captures that perfectly – sonically, and in the music video, also visually – covering the full spectrum of our upcoming trilogy.”

What is the essence of Lord Of The Lost in 2025? That is one of the questions OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 fearlessly begins to answer. Once again, the band proves not only musical excellence but also masterful craftsmanship: Produced by Chris Harms, recorded, mixed, and mastered at the legendary CHAMELEON STUDIOS in Hamburg, the 11 tracks hit with a force and brilliance that immediately transport us into a dark yet colourful ballroom. From there, the tone is set: Dark Wave Metal on an amphitheater scale.

Chris Harmscomments on the album: “Darkness, melancholy, loneliness - all words that often have negative connotations, that we may associate with danger, sadness and loss, and not without reason. But darkness can also be security, melancholy the warm and sentimental feeling of our memories, and loneliness becomes necessary silence, peace and inner contemplation. OPVS NOIR is a travel guide, or perhaps also a travelogue, through the dark sides of our inner world, which so often move precisely in the area of tension between what we emotionally categorize as positive or negative. And with Vol. 1, all of this is just the beginning of this 3-part journey...”
