The first ever German rock/metal Eurovision Song Contest representatives, Lord Of The Lost, have released an official music video for ‘Destruction Manual’. The new visual shows the whole band embodied by women, with vocalist Chris Harms represented by Ukrainian erotic model and influencer Louisa Khovanski. The song was originally released on the band’s successful #1 charting album (Germany), Blood & Glitter.

The new video arrives shortly before the Hamburg based unit leaves for Liverpool to present their song ‘Blood & Glitter’ at the Eurovision Song Contest in front of its total audience of 200 million viewers. The finals of the world’s biggest music contest will be broadcast worldwide on 13th May, and Lord Of The Lost are widely considered a strong top 10 contender with ‘Blood & Glitter’.
The band have also announced a special FREE ENTRY acoustic show at the famous Cavern Club in Liverpool. The performance starts at 10am and capacity is limited to 300 people on a first come first served basis.
2023 has been full of highlights for Lord Of The Lost: Starting with the band’s #1 debut on the Official German Album Charts and continuing with a sold-out club tour in Germany, Lord Of The Lost were also once again announced as European tour support for heavy metal legends Iron Maiden, joining them for ten shows. In addition, they will play many major metal festivals this summer. The dark rock unit even got to perform for and meet King Charles III, and their success story so far is about to culminate in representing Germany in the finals of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.
Lord Of The Lost comment on the new video for ‘Destruction Manual’: “A video where the whole band is represented by women. That is something I’ve wanted to do for half of my life. But it wasn’t the right time until now: the moment has come! Next to Louisa, we have four outstanding female musicians from all over the world at our instruments, and we love the energy that all five of them radiate here. What can I say? We’ve never looked so stunning!”

When conjuring the concept of Blood & Glitter, the band were inspired by the eponymous work of legendary music photographer Mick Rock, known for taking a large majority of the most famous photos of musicians in the 70s glam rock era. Lord Of The Lost visually immerse themselves in the lifestyle of that era and combine it with the new wave and pop sound of the 80s, building on their own familiar dark metal foundation. The result: a glamorous party with critical and direct messages.
