This work counted on the participation of a friend, Bruno Maia (Tuatha de Danann), in two songs and got excellent critical review in 100% of the vehicles where it was divulged, in the magazines Rock Brigade, Roadie Crew, Command Rock, Rock Underground and Valhalla (that it included the band a collection called Demo Section Vol. 1 , that congregated the fifteen better Brazilian demo bands) and sites as Heavy Metal Brazil, Brazil Law Metal, Strike, Whiplash, amongst others.
The Lothlöryen possess inspirations that go of Beatles, Jethro Tull and Led Zeppellin until Savatage, Gamma Ray, Running Wild, Tuatha de Danann, Grave Digger and Blind Guardian, this as bigger influence. With good taste and personality, the musicians had constituted a pleasant and difficult sound to define. To each music of the Lothlöryen you go discovering new nuance of the sound that involves us as magic.
In 2003/2004 the Lothlöryen if presents in important regional festivals, being at this invited time to touch in the Blackmore Rock Bar (São Paulo). The band already if divided palco with some of the best national bands, as Tuatha de Danann, Torture Squad, Sagitta, Monster, Tiger Cult, Atomica, Holy Sagga, Fates Prophecy, Velhas Virgens, Andralls, among others, always getting a warm receptividade on the part of the public. Still in 2003, the band reformulates its Line-Up with the entrances of João Messias (b) and Geovani Corsini (d) and the incursion of the tecladista Dꮩs Souza, who came to give more consistency to the sound of the group.
In the 2005, the band release, in partnership with Force Majeure Records, the so awaited Of Bards and Madmen, album surprises to that they discover it, therefore, although to have been done without the use of studios, famous producers or tracers, the work in nothing must to the launchings of tip of the national metal and world-wide, being a pride for who it raises the flag of ours underground .

The conscience
> The Bard
* The Elves
Part 1: Discovering Secrets
So Hear the Whisper of elves in this dark ancient
* "Don't be a fool, feel the mystic in the air"
Straight to insanity, strange twisted thoughts in your
mind
> Where are the secrets that one day I knew?
The dreams that I lived lies down in my dying heart
(Can you see them now?) In a cold hall of hope
Reality is turned my silent dungeon of cries
follow the madness to break all my pain
So let me try again
The barge must bring my light
And while elves take my hands
The distance was left behind
Memories has gone
But I keep my talisman
That shows me another way to believe
And reasons to dream again
I lost my pride when my journey starts
And in oceans of tears i was sail
But my mystic heart in my pride I found
And wash my tears away
So I remember my name
And the place from where I came
I'm just a bard with an elfic heart
That I leave in Lorien
Now and Beyond
There are secrets to find
But I just want to dream
So I'm coming home
Part 2 Elfic Manifest
I walk into this new world
For long ways
I can see, I can feel the dark thorns behind
And hear my old friends calls my name
The smells of mists and wine
The voices: "Do you see, do you feel the Kingdom of
dreams?
This is all that the mankind lost
When the innocence has gone"
But we live in a place of liberty
There's no tears or false heroes
(Just) open (the) doors of your real Insanity
And you will find the answers
This is a new dimension
(The) Lost sense in the World of Sanity
(Is the) real sense in our realm of Fantasy
Most real that men reality
The peace is all that we try
And wars is all that they find
Innocence is all that we need
The only way to hear that we sing
(And) in your heart the feelings you'll keep
The wisdom there's in your mind
(Is) the only key to can fly
(So) the answers that you can seek
You will find
The song "Elfic" by Lothlöryen is divided into two parts, "Discovering Secrets" and "Elfic Manifest". The first part invites the listener to feel the mystic energy of the Elven world and to embrace their own madness to break free from pain. The singer is on a quest to rediscover the secrets that they knew before and to reignite their dreams. They are aided by the Elves and their talisman, which show them another way to believe and provides reasons to dream again. The second part shifts to a new world of liberty, where the kingdom of dreams is found. The lyrics suggest that the real sense of life is in the realm of fantasy, where innocence is all that is needed, and the only way to hear the music is by opening the doors of real insanity. The singer is encouraged to keep the feelings in their heart, with the wisdom found in their mind being the only key to fly, and find the answers they seek.

Looks like some kind of High Elves (maybe Noldor) play power metal as good as the elves can (and the elves usually play better than the best human musicians).
