Long-running metallers Lord released their new covers album, Undercovers Vol. 1 on April 2nd via Dominus Records. The band stormed the Australian Music Charts, debuting at #7 in the ARIA Australia Artist charts and #1 on the Australian Independent and Independent Records charts for the week beginning April 12th.

Bassist Andy Dowling says comments: "This is the highest chart position in the history for the band and we cannot say thank you enough! To celebrate this historic moment for the band, we have just released new merch and an exclusive CD maxi single of our 'To The Moon And Back' Savage Garden cover, featuring a number of brand new mixes. This CD will be hand numbered, limited in quantity and only available for a limited time while we hope to maintain presence in the charts for as long as we can."

Dowling continues, “Undercovers Vol. 1 is the first instalment of amassing this ever growing collection of cover tracks that Lord have recorded over the years whether it be in the studio or on the stage. There will be many you’re familiar with and there will also be a few surprises. Of course, we couldn’t help ourselves and decided to record two new cover songs for this release, Savage Garden’s 'To The Moon And Back' and Judas Priest’s 'Reckless' and we even threw in two covers from LT’s Blackened Angel project. Artwork has been once again created by the talented Tristan Tait and a hand-numbered limited edition CD release will celebrate the highlights from Volume 1 of our Undercover journey.”
