Lost In Grey, the theatrical metal pioneers and one of the most promising and inspiring acts coming from the Finnish metal scene release the cover and the tracklist of their new studio album “Odyssey into the Grey”, which will be released on April 5th, 2024. The beautiful and dark cover was created by Miika Haavisto and Mikko Virtanen.
Miika Haavisto himself describes the cover as follows:
“My intention has been to create a visual journey also in the album cover art works. On the first album we are introduced with the nameless cloaked creature portraited in one way or another also on the other albums. On the 2nd album it takes the form of the mountains of the waste land, and on the 3rd, it’s positioned in the sea, under the surface. The starting point for creating the cover art for this 4th album was the thought of the entourage travelling with a horse carriage guided by this creature through the gloomy landscapes of the Grey Realms. In the background we can spot the mountains also visible in ‘The Waste Land’ album cover art”.
The 8 songs on the album are as well thought out and detailed as the cover, taking the listener on a journey – a musical experience!

The Finnish theatrical metal band Lost In Grey was founded in 2013 by composer, vocalist and keyboardist Harri Koskela, and lyricist and vocalist Anne Lill Rajala. What originally was planned to be simply a short-term project, soon grew into a full band. Inspired by a large variety of musical genres, literature, philosophy, and the world itself, Lost In Grey creates multifaceted music and brings elements of drama to their songs as well as live performances.
Followed by the previous album releases, “The Grey Relams” (2017), “The Waste Land” (2019), and Under the Surface” (2021), which all claimed great responses from audiences and media, Lost in Grey’s upcoming 4th album takes another giant leap towards even greater musical adventures.
