"2006' DEMO REVIEW"

Lost In Blue emerges as a potent instrumental trio on the three-song These Are The Days To Remember. The band hopes to add a lead singer, but in the meantime, listeners can enjoy "Kali Mist," which evolves from a mysterious intro to a full metal attack. The melodic "A Day To Remember" proves these guys can play a variety of styles. (www.lostinblue.com)

"SHOW REVIEW"


....The show started with Lost in Blue taking the stage. For a band without a vocalist, the trio of guitar, bass and drums did surprisingly well.

Their style was reminiscent of heavy metal bands from the 1980s and with hair long enough to reach the floor, Lost in Blue flirted with a grunge style.

Overall, the band's performance was excellent for warming up the crowd.

Drummer Zach Zamost's father and bassist Ryan Sylverne's uncle is Effigies bassist Paul Zamost, but Lost in Blue bear little resemblance to the punk legends. - the Northern Star

"2006' DEMO REVIEW"

Lost in Blue - These Are Days To Remember Demo (review by Pete)

This is a band from Chicago that really knows how to play their instruments! I must say that this demo surprised me, because I had no idea what the band sounded like when I put it in. These guys are a very unique 3-piece metal band that combines lots of influences in one solid punch to the sack. In the first couple of minutes into the demo I heard hints of old Black Sabbath, some Motorhead, a little Fates Warning and even some Pantera. Sounds like an odd mixture of metal? Well, let me introduce you to Lost in Blue!

The production on this demo is very good and really brings out the escence of the band in a neat and polished way. The artwork is simple but it works. They are an instrumental band that finds a way to entertain without vocals by intertwining melody and complex music and making you forget there aren't any vocals. The first song Kali Mist is really a musicians buffet with lots of wicked guitar soloing as well as nice bass and drum grooves to keep the metal fires burning bright. The second song Illusions Be Shattered is more of a heavy riffing tune, with some tasty double kicks to keep the metal freaks thrashing. The song has a little more of an early Iron Maiden feel, with some cool Judas Priest double guitar stuff. The last song A Day to Remember is a little more mellow, but a good showcase of what the band can do musically. Keith really shines on this one playing some incredible guitar stuff. But bassist Ryan and drummer Zach are keeping the foundation strong and rock solid . . . while venturing off into paths unknown and keeping the listener wondering what they'll do next.

I do like my metal heavier than this, but I can totally appreciate the skill and excellent song writing that makes up Lost in Blue. They really get an A plus from me on the originality front and musicianship for sure. These guys are very incredible. - Heavycore.com

"2004' DEMO REVIEW"

Lost In Blue - Remain In This Dream (review by Luke)

From the northern Chicago area, Lost in Blue’s music comes soaring in on the wings of both the graceful birds and the mighty combat machines of the sky. Their CD entitled Remain in this Dream contains all of the European melodic principles of 20 years ago with a barb-edged loss of reason and rhythm shifting that is prominent in a lot of American metal today. It starts off with their dark, flowing, yet tuneful strong suit then incurs multiple time, tempo, and style changes throughout the course of just one song. Lost in Blue is definitely NOT your usual “verse-chorus-verse” style of band. These guys can play! Lost in Blue’s musical methodology has close ties to the comforting and elevating doubled lines of Iron Maiden. The riffs seem to be born of true purpose and are able to compel you emotionally but they also brandish the authority to abruptly throw you into the gunfire of war with an American thrash-molded melee. The recording quality is terrific with all instruments leveled faultlessly. The only down side to the album is that it is short (4 songs long) and leaves you desiring more. At the current time, Lost in Blue is without a vocalist so this CD is completely instrumental. Honestly, I didn’t even notice due to being so enveloped by the music. One thing is certain: when they find the singer that is right for them, look the hell out! If you like metal, or if you like music at all for that matter, you’ll like what Lost in Blue has to offer; there’s something in here for everyone. Head to www.lostinblue.com and check them out right away. - Heavycore.com
