Germany's Lord Of The Lost have released a video for "On This Rock I Will Build My Church", a song from their sixth studio album, Thornstar, out on August 3rd via Napalm Records. The band have also announced European tour dates in October.

Class Grenayde comments on the song: “'On This Rock I Will Build My Church' is the perfect opener for the very large and heavy packaging in which this monster was trapped. The song paves the way for a lot more…”

Chris Harms adds: “For the video we came up with something very special. We’ve invented both, a time machine and a rejuvenation apparatus to live up to our roots and as children, somewhere between the 80s and 90s to shoot this very special music video on VHS. That was damn expensive, but it was worth it.”

Lord Of The Lost are a multi-talented, modern metal band whose music presents itself far beyond genre stereotypes: a solid metal base featuring industrial parts or other dark rock elements - nothing is impossible. This band takes a flying leap beyond genre parameters - better than ever! Their previous releases topped the German album charts already, while the upcoming release Thornstar will in no way be inferior to past efforts. This, their sixth studio album, reveals even more sonic facets of the band, all the while remaining hard and forceful.

The deep and emotional concept behind the album follows the story of a doomed high civilization - Thornstar is a record unique in both sound and concept.

Singer Chris Harms on this concept: “From the beginning it has been a big vision we had with Thornstar - the concept demands a lot of responsibility. And the final result overtook us completely.”
