Lord is a heavy metal band based in Wollongong, Australia.

Lord began as the solo project of Dungeon’s singer/guitarist and founding member 'Lord Tim' Grose. During his time with Dungeon, Grose felt that some of his compositions were either too personal to submit to the band or inappropriate for its style. Eventually these songs made their way on to the appropriately named album A Personal Journey in 2003.

At the end of 2005, Dungeon came to an end and Lord became a bona fide band featuring Grose and drummer Tim Yatras of Dungeon, along with guitarist Mav Stevens and bass player Andrew Dowling from Brisbane metal band Sedition. A Personal Journey was re-mastered and released to mark the occasion.

Lord enjoyed success immediately, undertaking a national tour within months and supporting Queensrÿche's Australian tour. The band is also due to support both Nevermore and Gamma Ray before the end of 2006.
