Genre-bending German band Lord Of The Lost have kicked off the celebrations for their upcoming album “Opvs Noir Vol. 2” (out December 12th, 2025, via Napalm Records) with the release of the first single, “Raveyard”, featuring Finnish rapper and Eurovision runner-up Käärijä.
Now, the Hamburg-based sextet shares even more exciting news: they are set to bring their dark, trademark sound to international stages with the announcement of their massive Tovr Noir 2026. Following their tours across the USA, Canada, and Australia, the band will return to Europe, in Spring 2026, performing in 19 countries. All tour dates can be found below.
Joining them as special guests are three outstanding acts. Fantastical symphonic quartet Ad Infinitum will complete the first half of the tour, while the second half will feature Dogma and modern metal rising stars League of Distortion, with two special guests per show.
Lord Of The Lost’s Tovr Noir promises a diverse setlist featuring tracks from the Opvs Noir trilogy, highlights from albums like “Blood & Glitter”, “Judas”, and “Thornstar”, along with band classics and select cover songs. Known for their unique mix of darkness, emotion, and party energy, the shows will bring together an equally diverse fanbase – ranging from gothic and metal enthusiasts to Eurovision followers, families, and mainstream audiences. The tour will also serve as a temporary farewell, as the band plans a one-year touring break after the 2026 festival season to focus on songwriting and new creative projects within the band.

Following their enchantingly colorful Blood & Glitter, which earned them participation in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 and a #1 chart entry in their native Germany, Lord Of The Lost reinvent themselves yet again. With “Opvs Noir Vol. 2”, another 11 heartfelt songs join the three-part cycle, tying seamlessly into Vol. 1. Once again produced by frontman Chris Harms in the historic Chameleon Studios, it is yet another stirring example of the Hamburg-based band’s unparalleled versatility. Opening with dark yet catchy “The Fall From Grace”, Lord Of The Lost immediately showcases their way with grand ballroom choruses weaved into grave melodies that will continue to sit enthroned on all the varied tracks until the last note of the ballad “Sharp Edges”.
Joining in are guests ranging from scene favorites to top-tier musicians outside the metal genre. First up is Infected Rain’s Lena Scissorhands, who refines the pitch-black “Would You Walk With Me Through Hell?” with the full range of her fierce, yet fragile vocals. Similarly, Anna Brunner of rising melodic metal stars League of Distortion and symphonic metal band Exit Eden lends her energetic voice to “Please Break The Silence”, inducing goosebumps – every talent is an important scene in “Opvs Noir”’s grimly colorful movie for the ears. Unexpectedly, yet fittingly, Finnish rap artist Käärijä, runner-up at Eurovision 2023, turns “Raveyard” into a dancefloor with a mix of industrial, gothic, and Finnish rap—as if heralding the dawn of a new genre. The most moving collaboration is the opulent “What Have We Become”, in which experimental artist IAMX meets Chris Harms for a cathartic duet.
Completely fearless, Lord Of The Lost have long since playfully risen above genre conventions and expectations. “Opvs Noir Vol. 2” mercilessly opens new doors in the band’s musical palace, yet still feels 100% at home for fans from the very beginning!
