Lothlorien

Lothlorien

Lothlorien - that are concept - albums in the style of Pink Floyd and Marillion.
But there are also musical influences of Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan to be recognised.

Lothlorien - that is music to dream with lyrics to think about.

About stepping stones and lost dreams
The debut - album of Lothlorien, a very personal concept - album about growing up and the face-off with the own past that you can't escape. An album about love and lost love, about dreams that don't come true, about lost hopes and about the search of the own way.
An easeful, reflective rock - album, an album like a film, telling in flashbacks and in haunting pctures about life.
