Hi, we are The Lotus Matter, a Progressive/Post Metal band based in Athens, Greece.
The band was originally created in 2017 under a different name and lineup. Years later, after multiple lineup changes and a shift from a more traditional progressive death metal sound we decided it was time for a change.
So in the autumn of 2021, as all the pieces were finally coming together and we had a stable lineup we created "The Lotus Matter".
For us, it was more than just a name change, it was a fresh start, it was a new direction, it was finally all members working together and putting their influences into the final product.
The sound of the band was moving towards a more experimental and atmospheric sound incorporating more influences and music genres than before.
If we had to describe our influences, we’d say we’re inspired by the storytelling of Pink Floyd and Porcupine Tree, the dynamic range of Opeth, the atmosphere of bands like The Ocean Collective and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, the raw emotion of Alice In Chains, the experimentation of Radiohead, and Greek folk music.
During the summer of 2022, we began recording our first LP "In Limbo .Pt1" , which will be released on June 13th via Sound Effect Records.
Pre-orders for Vinyl and CD formats are now available on our Bandcamp and the Sound Effect Records webstore.
