History

Lost In Thought formed in late 2007 when David Grey and Simon Pike embarked on a quest to find other musicians to compose and perform progressive tinged music with and found Greg Baker and Chris Billingham. After completing their line-up with vocalist Nate Loosemore, the band recorded a demo EP early 2010 which secured them a management deal with Intromental Worldwide. After a few months in the studio recording 'Opus Arise' the band's management secured them a record deal with Inner Wound Records in Sweden.

Musical Style & Response

The band's music is generally described as having something in it for everyone. They incorporate a lot of different elements of music from Classical to Metal. They have complex arrangements and pitched vocals.

Nate Loosemore (Vocals) stated:

"At Lost In Thought we wanted to create something undeniably melodic and catchy. Too many people out there miss this sort of Melodic Progressive metal yet it has not been in the limelight for nearly 20 years. To a lot of people, being able to hear this kind of music coming back again is like a dream come true. We are really influenced by some of the greatest albums of all time and it clearly shows in our music but at the same time we want to keep a type of music going that has had dust blowing over it for quite some time and the response has been outstanding."
