Lost Under Heaven: Between Devotion and Dystopia
Formation and Artistic Identity
Lost Under Heaven was formed by Ellery James Roberts and Dutch artist Ebony Hoorn after Roberts’ exit from WU LYF. Working out of Manchester, the duo developed a powerful blend of post-punk energy, electronic production and cinematic arrangements. Their early material introduced a dramatic and emotionally charged sound that quickly drew attention within the alternative music scene.
Expanding the Sound
With the release of Spiritual Songs for Lovers to Sing and later Love Hates What You Become, LUH pushed their creative boundaries. Tracks like “Post-Millennial Tension” reflected social unrest and generational anxiety, combining sharp lyricism with layered instrumentation. Their music balanced intimacy and масштаб, moving between fragile confession and explosive crescendos.
Visual Vision and Live Presence
Beyond the studio, the duo emphasized strong visual storytelling. The single “Come” was presented through a virtual-reality video concept, highlighting their interest in immersive experiences. On stage, Lost Under Heaven delivered intense performances marked by raw emotion and striking aesthetics, leaving a distinct mark on modern art-rock culture.
