LOST SOCIETY have announced a new album!

Titled If The Sky Came Down, the upcoming album from the Finnish thrash metal band is the follow-up to 2020’s No Absolution and is scheduled to be released in September this year via Nuclear Blast Records, with whom the band re-signed in 2021.

Alongside the announcement of the album, the band have released a new music video for the record’s opening track and lead single 112.

Speaking about the upcoming album and the new song, frontman Samy Elbanna comments, ”The upcoming album is a portrayal of how you see the world after you have come to terms with the fact that all hope has been lost. A world where all your insecurities and worst fears come to life. It’s my story, and 112 is where it all begins. It’s the moment you realise your life has started to unravel and you can finally be fully honest with yourself and admit: you’re not okay. There’s something incredibly purifying and serene about letting go, and finally starting to build something new. Since writing the lyrics and chorus to this song, it was clear that this was the first song people have to hear from the album.”

Elbanna adds, “During the recording of the album, I had compiled a few different music video ideas that I really wanted to do for the album – and the synopsis that I had for 112 was just something we knew we HAD to do. The AMAZING Vita Pictura team immediately grabbed the idea and supercharged it, and I think together we made something absolutely magical. The music video depicts the whole theme of the album, and in particular the feeling talked about on the track itself. Going through a period in time where you feel as though you keep waking up in the exact same time, same place and same emotion without any help. You try to mess with your own “hell loop” but you just keep falling down and finding yourself back where you started.”
