Hailing from the streets of Glasgow, Lotus Eater formed in 2016 after parting various projects to create a gloom force to be reckoned with. The quintet combine remorseless, down-tuned groove and claustrophobic atmosphere to utterly traumatizing effect. In just two years of forming, the band has already dropped a successful debut self-titled EP (2017) that has won them legions of fans. The band has also gone on to tour with the likes of Bad Omens, Oceans ate Alaska, Loathe, Heart Of A Coward, Traitors and Secrets. They are only just getting started.
