Lorna Shore is an American symphonic blackened deathcore band based in Warren County, New Jersey. The current formation includes lead vocalist Will Ramos, guitarists Adam De Micco and Andrew O'Connor, bassist Michael Yager and drummer Austin Archey. The band was formed in 2009, as De Micco was originally joined by Ray Meoni, Aaron Brown, Jeff Moskovciak, Gary Herrera and Scott Cooper. After just a few months, however, Tom Barber joined Lorna Shore as their new vocalist, after bassist Gary Herrera had seen him perform in a local New Jersey Mall and had invited him to try out for the band at one of their practices. From there, while going through several member changes, the band went on to record three EPs – Triumph in 2010, Bone Kingdom in 2012, and Maleficium in 2013 – and two full-length albums – Psalms in 2015 and Flesh Coffin in 2017. Since 2011, no original members remain in the band, with the longest-running member being Adam De Micco since joining in 2010. Vocalist and founding member Tom Barber left the band in 2018 to take over vocal duties in Chelsea Grin, and was replaced in Lorna Shore by CJ McCreery (Signs of the Swarm). McCreery was asked to leave the band in 2019 and in 2021, was replaced by A Wake in Providence vocalist Will Ramos. On June 11, 2021, the band officially announced Ramos as their new permanent vocalist and debuted a new single, titled “To the Hellfire,” which was also the first anticipation of their fourth EP, …And I Return to Nothingness – released on August 13 of the same year. “To The Hellfire” received widespread public and critical acclaim within the metal community, mostly due to its rhytmic composition and Ramos' stand-out performance. On April 29, 2022, during a concert, the band debuted a new song, “Sun//Eater,” which would eventually get an official release on May 13 and served as the lead single from the band’s fourth LP, titled Pain Remains and slated for October of the same year. The album was further anticipated by another single, “Into The Earth,” released on June 22, 2022. The third single of the album, “Cursed To Die,” was released on July 27, showcasing a slightly lower and more melodic sound, but still including the heaviness of the last two singles. The album’s closer and title track was released as the fourth and final single, with its three movements being shared one by one between September and October of the same year. The LP as a whole was then released on October 14.
