THE LOTUS burst out a rock that immediately strikes for impressiveness and originality. Born in Italy in 2002, with time and some line-up adjustments, the band has developed a very personal sound that is sophisticated and explosive at the same time.
Though deeply innovative and poetic, The Lotus’ music is deeply rooted in the very essence of the most genuine, revolutionary and visceral rock.
Their rhythm section is as powerful and surgically precise as it gets, their harmonies are complex and unique, their compositional structures and themes are the result of deep research and their personal existential journeys.
Massive edgy riffs are surrounded by pure psychedelic moments and by melodies suspended between rage and melancholy. All of this is a perfect match to their profound social and introspective lyrics: man’s mind, heart, pain and need to transcend emerge one out another through their electronics, vocal arrangements and vibrant dynamics.
Their live performances are the best example of all this: on stage, The Lotus explosively transmit their idiosyncratic refinement/aggressiveness binomial. A very unique visual impact, rare technical skills, the whole band’s total emotional and physical involvement and, most of all, their songs: all this turns their concerts into experiences it’s very hard not be affected by.
