Breaking free from well-trodden paths, the North Rhine-Westphalian band FOOL THE MASSES formed in 2020 to create and spread their sound beyond genre boundaries. With their sophomore full-length album "It's All Lost", due out on 06/07/2024 via Dr. Music Records, the five-piece band presents its musical definition of Industrial Metalcore. From the start, an extraordinary puzzle of Hardcore, Metal and Techno was pieced together. Out of this crystallizes the impressively brute sound, featuring thrilling melodies and a red-hot cocktail that sticks in the head throughout the twelve songs of "It's All Lost". Soundwise, frontman Niklas Ratsch and his band alternate clean vocals with screams and brute shouts, paired with massive Metal riffs and rounded off by mechanical drum beats with loads of synthesizer sounds. Instead of a drummer, FOOL THE MASSES rely on Dutchman DJ Vornax, who provides the basis with his versatile Electro beats. Furthermore, lead guitarist Lea Karla engages in feisty duels with second guitarist Raphael Moujou. The hard-hitting Metalcore album was produced and mastered at Blackhole Music & Productions Studio by bassist Lucas Grünke, and the apocalyptic artwork was created by Kamil Wilde of Heart Taped Designs (i.a. Maelfoy, Alexis In Texas, Never Back Down). FOOL THE MASSES are enjoying a steadily growing fan base with their successful live shows throughout Germany, both furious and sweat-inducing, and the five band members are using the energy of their gigs to refine further their sound, which they consistently pursue with their dystopian masterpiece "It's All Lost".

FOOL THE MASSES presents a vicious picture of the present with the songs from their energetic, powerful sophomore album "It's All Lost" and raises anticipation for wild circle pits and explosive live action at upcoming shows. With this album, the German band is making their mark in the international Metalcore scene!
