Underlords of the Overworld

Defying the combined forces of conventionalism, commercialism, and sometimes even good taste, Underlords of the Overworld is a musical venture formed back in 2012 by a conclave of likeminded, creative individualists. Grounded in genres of heavy and progressive rock with a just pinch of funk, the Underlords have built a reputation as underappreciated and overlooked musical antiheroes. Joining forces with the equally obscure pulp fantasy author H. Prescott Lemon, the Underlords have produced a discography of conceptual albums which serve as a musical expression of the fictional Underlords Universe.

Lottery of Your Life - 2024

The Underlords first album featuring lead vocals and a treasure trove of reimagined songs from their past. The result is a collection that can stand alone or complement the expansive, multidimensional Underlords stories written under H. Prescott Lemon's pen, that explore themes like fate, ambition, and transformation across time and space.

If this is your first step into the Underlords Universe, take a chance. Play the Lottery of Your Life. You might just win more than you expect.

Ordo Abstrusus Oculus (ft. Blaze Bayley) - 2024

With the contribution of former Iron Maiden vocalist, Blaze Bayley, this epic track takes the listener on the mystical experience of a cosmic rock and roll journey - a journey that can be further traveled in the pages of H. Prescott Lemon's novels: The Consciousness Eater, The Master of Sigils, The Demonologist's Understudy, and The Dream Plunderer. 

Soup & Sandwich (ft. Derek Sherinian) - 2023

In early 2022, Brian shared “Soup and Sandwich” with Derek Sherinian, known for his work with Alice Cooper, Dream Theater, Sons of Apollo, and more. Derek’s keyboard additions inspired a full reimagining of the song. Kevin Neal, who recorded the original version in 2018,  revisited the recording and offered a new mix, while Brian and producer Andy Anderson reworked the guitar, bass, and drum arrangements. The result: a completely new version of the track.

Travelers in Time - 2022

A fantastical tale of musicians searching for the perfect drummer across dimensions. Inspired by H. Prescott Lemon's story of the same name, the Underlords have created instrumental tracks reflecting its characters—despite still lacking a drummer for much of the recording.

Eventually, they found a second Andy (drummer #10, for those counting), and after years of effort, the album was complete. It’s been a long journey, but we believe the result is worth your time, as is Lemon’s captivating novel.
