Lost Horizon are a power/progressive metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden. They went under the name Highlander from 1990 until 1994 (with Joacim Cans on vocals and other future Hammerfall members) before the band was put on hold. Reformed in the late nineties, briefly under the same name, before changing it to Lost Horizon. The band is Swedish but Wojtek Lisicki is from Poland.

Contrary to popular rumors, Lost Horizon is not currently "on hold". The band slowed down a bit while writing new material during the search for a new singer, but they are still actively working on the next album. However, there is no current date for this new material to appear.

[edit] Philosophy

The band have an existentialist philosophical message for all of their listeners. They believe fully in the power of free will, and the complete denial of fate. They believe in motivating and helping people harmed by self doubt, and fear. This message is reflected in almost all of their songs. They are also strongly against the use of illicit substances.
