Lost Society was initially considered a thrash/speed metal band. In their first two albums, Fast Loud Dead (2013) and Terror Hungry (2014), they delivered fast and raw thrash metal with aggressive and party-themed lyrics often revolving around alcohol consumption. Their style started to change in their third album, Braindead (2016). While Braindead is still considered a thrash metal album, the band started incorporating elements of groove metal and metalcore to their music and most of the lyrics started to shift to other topics rather than partying and binge drinking. This trend became more evident in their fourth album, No Absolution (2020), in which the band completely moved away from thrash metal. No Absolution can be classified as a blend of melodic metalcore, death metal, groove metal, and nu metal. The lyrics in No Absolution focus on religion and its negative influence on people and society. Their fifth album If The Sky Came Down (2022) has shown the fans a more modern musical style. If The Sky Came Down is, similarly to No Absolution, a metalcore album mixed with nu metal and groove metal. The lyrics in their fifth album have angsty and existential dread themes.

I discovered this band in 2022 when they supported Blind Channel in their European Tour in spring. At that moment their songs sounded very heavy for me, but I really laked the album that released in autumn 2022. Moreover, these songs helped me a lot when I was feeling terrible.
In May 2025 the band was released new single Dead people scare me, and I’m looking forward to a new album!
