Lord Of The Lost break out into yet another new direction with "One Of Us Will Be Next", the second single from their forthcoming full-length, Opvs Noir Vol. 2, set for release on 12 December via Napalm Records. Emotionally carried by gentle piano melodies, this ballad gifts a powerful soundtrack to an aspect of life most people tend to avoid: its end.
Taking a deep look at death itself, this thoughtful addition to Lord Of The Lost's expansive catalogue yet again manages to find hope even in the darkest of places. Chris Harms weaves his haunting vocals around the gloomy premise of our ultimate passing, turning it into an almost beautiful event - a track sure to make the upcoming Opvs Noir Vol. 2 stand out as a worthy follow-up to the band's summer release and trilogy opener, Opvs Noir Vol. 1.
Chris Harms about "One Of Us Will Be Next": "In the middle of a concert last year, I suddenly realized: one of us in this venue will be the next to go. On their way home that night, a few weeks later, maybe in a couple of months or years. But inevitably, one of us will be the next to die, and we will never come together again in the exact same constellation. The same goes for every family gathering, every party with friends, and even time spent as a couple. 'One Of Us Will Be Next' is a plea not to dwell on the past or search for happiness in a better future, but to be grateful for every moment, the present, and the company we find ourselves in at any given time - and to meet people with that very awareness. Because every word could be our last, at any moment".
