LAST MARTYRS of a LOST CAUSE are a punk/ska/reggae band that rose out of the ashes of several defunct Philadelphia area bands (Long Shot Hero & 80 Proof Soul). We’re proud to have released our first full length album, “Sunrays to Starlight” on December 14, 2008.
You can purchase the album in MP3 Format from Digstation or iTunes!
PRESS: LMLC have not only a quality that far surpasses that of a local band standard, but a sound all their own. Combine this with their energetic live performance, and you have the recipe for a few guys you might want to keep an eye on. …One thing I would look for when booking bands was an act’s ability to appeal to more than a small niche, because that’s the best promotion a band can get, more fans. Last Martyrs draw fans from all sides of the musical spectrum, because they offer something for everyone. ~ Tay Mondak , PhillySka.com
The album is solid through and through. There is not a song to be skipped, as each one offers something new while maintaining the band’s sound. The horns are solid, giving the entire album a boost even if it doesn’t really need one. The lyrics are also solid; Irons is a talented singer, and he gives each song its own personality and tone. The production and mixing, too, are very high-quality. ~ Thomas Enget, MNska.com
Last Martyrs of a Lost Cause have established themselves as not only a vigorous outfit, but musicians with a scarce gift to transform the face of music as we know it into something epic, and similarly, something words can’t even begin to describe. [Their Demo] is a sensational foundation for the Philadelphia-based sextet, and with the essential bullwork, desire, and unified ambition, absolutely no reason exists as to why Last Martyrs of a Lost Cause possess anything less than the grant to enthrall believers everywhere. ~ Brandon Allin, Absolutepunk.net
