Leprous released into Slavery
View lyric video for track from The Congregation ahead of Tech-Fest appearance

Leprous have released a lyric video for their track Slave.
It’s taken from fifth album The Congregation, launched in May via InsideOut.
Mainman Einar Solberg says: “Slave is one of the most emotional tracks of the album. The foundation is simple – but the content is rich.”
He recently discussed the band’s focus on retaining their creative integrity, saying: “If we’d started considering all the feedback we get from everyone we’d be completely confused. In a composition process, the most important thing is to keep your distance from all expectations.”
The Congregation is on sale now. Leprous tour Europe in the coming months, including a set at Tech-Fest this week and three UK shows in October:
Jul 10: Tech-Fest, UK

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
