Christofer always had a big passion for the 70’s music. Luciferian Light Orchestra sounds like a 70’s version of Therion, mainly inspired by the 70’s occult vibes and themes. The self-titled album was recorded and mixed by Christofer at Adulruna Studio and and mixed by Lennart Östlund (LED ZEPPELIN, ABBA) at Polar.
In the process of making the record, there was a large group of people involved:
2 drummers
1 bass player
5 guitarists
2 keyboard players
3 hammond organists
4 lead singers
5 backing singers
It's not official who contributed on the album and who the members are, but Christofer has revealed that it’s ”a mix of old symphonic rock and progressive musicians, some current Therion members, one ex. Therion member and some artists from other bands. Plus some known and unknown people from Dragon Rouge giving a hand with backing vocals.”
The self titled debut album was released in Europe on the Walpurgis night 2015. The record got many positive feedbacks from different circles - from the media, Therion fans, lovers of the 70’s rock and roll and fans of the occult rock genre. Luciferian Light Orchestra made numberless enthusiasts shortly after the record was out.
The band toured in Latin America in the fall 2015 and in Europe during January 2016, both times as a support act on the tour with Therion. Luciferians received many positive critics while being on the tour and performing live was a great gateway for discovering a new audience.
