Lost Society re-sign to Nuclear Blast Records

LOST SOCIETY have re-signed to Nuclear Blast Records!

After first erupting on the scene back in 2013 with debut album Fast Loud Death, the Finnish thrashers have long been touted as one of metal’s hottest young names. After a short excursion from Nuclear Blast (who released Fast Loud Death, 2014’s Terror Hungry and 2016’s Braindead) to self-release last year’s No Absolution, the band have re-joined the Nuclear Blast roster. The band will hit the studio again this Autumn.

Speaking about re-joining the Nuclear Blast roster, frontman Samy Elbanna says, “after the release of our strongest album yet, we are beyond stoked to announce our return to the world’s biggest heavy metal label, Nuclear Blast. This past year has been all about writing and perfecting the LxSx sound, and we cannot wait to carry out our massive plans for the future together with the titans of the world of metal music. The next chapter of LOST SOCIETY begins now. Be prepared.”

Jens Prueter, Head of A&R Nuclear Blast Europe adds, “welcome back LOST SOCIETY! You always meet twice. The Finnish ‘youngstars’ had an amazing start with their first three albums of teenage thrash fury. But I guess it happens with every family that grown-ups want to move out to develop on their own. And that’s what happened to LOST SOCIETY. They redefined their style with the latest self-released album No Absolution and found a new, even more successful, direction with a clear vision for greater things to happen. Nuclear Blast Records is more than happy to share their vision and continue working with one of the most promising bands in modern metal. Special thanks to their management team Kristen Mulderig and Jouni ‘Grey Beard’ Markkanen! Let’s raise some hell!”

And Gerardo Martinez, General Manager Nuclear Blast USA, says, NB is thrilled to see LOST SOCIETY return home after an independent stint. Now, armed with a great team behind them, We cannot wait to see them back in North America, as we are more than ready to embark on a successful career with them!”
