Lost Earth is an Auckland, New Zealand based project carried out by multi-instrumentalist André Birt (taking on vocal, guitar, bass and keyboard duties) and drummer Brent Martin. The pair have released their debut and self-titled album independently and citing the lack of a live scene for new bands in their homeland the band is a studio-only affair. Having said that; it does have a big sound with a bright production and the drums are very upfront in the mix. Although the band classifies its sound as melodic rock, I would say that it is sounds like very accessible prog rock with a bit of classic rock thrown in. The vocals, although pleasant to listen to, are half-spoken on the whole and prevent some of the songs reaching their full potential.

The album commences with ´Never Be Heard´ which is quite upbeat with a steady guitar riff and a few interspersed solo breaks and a claxon sounding keyboard effect cropping up every so often. Following this, ´Time Is Running Out´ is a more interesting song with a lot more keyboards throughout and a driving drum beat and a vocal sung through a megaphone!
