Big shout-out to ‪@KeyOfGeebz‬ for releasing this composer’s reaction and analysis video of ‘Offer’. It was a pleasure watching him break down our work and identifying elements that we ourselves don’t even quite realise are present until they’re explained by an expert. This kind of thing really helps us in pushing our music to larger audiences, so we appreciate these efforts so much. Not to mention, it’s so fulfilling to hear that the intensive work we did to execute the ideas and concepts we used in our songs was received so well and as we intended ❤️

You can watch his full video at the link below, and be sure to check out the rest of his YouTube channel for more great reactions 🔥

Hello everyone! It’s been an extremely busy few months for us despite Melbourne’s recent Covid lockdown situations, and we have some awesome news to start sharing with you all.

A string of exciting announcements is just about to be sent out to our beloved Mailing List members with a lot of insider information about what we’ve been up to during these last few months, and some big things to look forward to from us before the end of the year - as well as something NEW coming that will be available to subscribers first!

If you aren’t already, being on our Mailing List is the absolute best way to stay in-the-loop on everything in the Lucid Planet universe, including cool things we like, new products and music, live announcements and more. As we are going to be taking a more active approach to our Mailing List over the coming months, now is the best time to stay updated, as lockdowns draw to a close and the possibility for live performance and touring finally becomes real again.

So head over to our beautifully revamped Home Page that Michael has been working hard on (with more super cool website updates on the way) and sign up with us! Simply enter your email address in the field at the bottom of the page, and we’ll send you some really cool stuff every now and then. We look forward to reaching out to you, and as always thank you for being here ❤️

Hey guys! Thought we’d share this awesome thing with you.

We had a great time chatting with Maxx from The Sleeping Shaman about our little world recently. His interesting questions were constructed in a way that prompted an almost two-hour conversation, which easily could have gone longer, and was enjoyed thoroughly by everyone involved. The best parts of that conversation are documented here and it is a well-written and insightful read about some of the finer details of the production of album II and what we’re keeping busy with (and preparing for!) during the confusing times we live in.

Check out the interview at the link below, and be sure to head over and follow the Shaman’s social media platforms and in particular their website - a super easy-to-use and informative source for some great music and news within the sphere.

Thank you again to Maxx for the fantastic chat and interview, who we can’t wait to chat to again soon, and to our friends at The Sleeping Shaman for the hugely appreciated support and faith in what we are doing. These kinds of things are so critical for us as a fully independent band in branching out and reaching new listeners, so it really means so much to us to have this kind of passion about the work we’ve poured ourselves into ❤️

Our beautiful collector's glasses are finally available for purchase at our online store! These glasses are laser-etched personally by members of the band and decorated with our logo and the incredible work of Mr Crystalface. Aside from being a beautiful addition to any desk or mantelpiece, the glasses can be used in a variety of ways - for drinks, as a candle holder, incense holder, a flower vase and more. We've also designed and 3D printed our own incense holders to sit inside the glass - you can choose to include one for free with every purchase!

In an incredible turn of events, we're unbelievably excited to share that 'Lucid Planet II' won not only Best Progressive Album of 2020, but Best Album Artwork AND Biggest Surprise as well!

We're absolutely blown away by the force of our community backing us up. We put out the call and you answered with an overwhelming voice. It's because of you that we've won these awards – and we can't tell you how huge that is for us.

You've heard from us a thousand times about what it means to be an independent band. We lack the resources and connections that well-established bands have. But we believe that our independence is one of our biggest strengths, and this has proven how right we are. We all belong to this community. We all believe in the spirit of connection, of creativity and boldness, and of a brighter future. With you behind us, we can do anything.

This year is shaping up to be a big one – you can expect some more exciting news from us very soon. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being a part of this journey. We've said it before and we'll say it again: we do all of this this for you, and we couldn't do it without you. This is only the beginning.

We've been nominated for several awards over at Metal Storm! We're thrilled and honoured to have been nominated by their staff, and we're especially excited for this opportunity to gain wider international recognition. But we NEED YOUR HELP!

The Metal Storm Awards are user-voted, and if we know anything, it's that we're surrounded by a community that wants to see us succeed. So we're calling upon our community to help back us up. It truly takes only a minute to register and vote - only a username and email required!

Below is the easiest way to vote for us. The website can be buggy and may need to be refreshed once or twice to view the pages correctly.
1) Register for a free account here: www.metalstorm.net/users/regis...
2) Check out the award categories on the right hand side of this page: metalstorm.net/awards/
3) Select the categories we are nominated for (Best Progressive Metal Album, Best Album Artwork and Biggest Surprise)
4) Click on our name and album, or simply write it into the field.

Opportunities like this are huge for bands like us. This sort of recognition can help bring us the momentum we need to go the distance. So please, friends, make your marks, share this with your people, and help us achieve our dream. Thank you for being with us!
