1 Here in Spain despite already have a few discs are to much of the public strangers How to explain the history of the band to give you know?
LORD was originally called ‘Dungeon’ and we have been playing for 26 years. In late 2005, we decided to change the name of the band to LORD and have released several albums and EP’s since. We have been very busy!
2 Your latest album is a true wonder How compositional themes emerged for such a masterpiece?
Thank you! The new EP was centered around the title track ‘What Tomorrow Brings’, however we decided to also include a number of unreleased songs to ensure we had as much music on there for fans as possible! There are no common theme’s between the songs, and the title track is the spotlight. Everything else is a bonus!
3 opening track on the album and is also the title of the "What Tomorrow Brings" is a great song over 25 minutes long !!!! How did you come to put that idea so long to open the disc subject?
Lord Tim wrote the song ‘What Tomorrow Brings’ which is a long and complex story of a man faced with tragedy. In fact, LT has written a very long and great post about the song itself. If you want to know more about that song, you can read about it here - https://www.lord.net.au/blog/what-tomorrow-brings-behind-the-story/
4 In this album there are four very different versions, the pop (A-HA) rock (The Police, Little River) or heavy metal (Helloween) How was it to do these disparate versions?
We love to record cover songs and we love lots of different music. We love pop, rock and of course metal! We always try to find songs that we love and turn them into LORD songs!
5 To me especially liked the version of A-HA, nothing to do with the true do ye think the same? For you it is the best that you to stay?
We like to make the song our own. We respect the original, but we make it sound like a LORD song. I do love that song. It’s very cool!
