Lorna Shore Crowned “Greatest Band of All Time” at Prestigious Global Music Awards
In a historic moment for heavy music, American deathcore band Lorna Shore has been crowned the “Greatest Band of All Time” at the 2025 Global Music Awards. The accolade recognizes the band’s meteoric rise and transformative impact on the metal genre.
Formed in 2009 in New Jersey, Lorna Shore has evolved from underground metalcore roots to become a defining force in modern deathcore. Their 2021 EP, …And I Return to Nothingness, featuring the viral hit “To the Hellfire,” catapulted them into the global spotlight. The track topped the iTunes metal chart and was hailed as one of the best metal songs of 2021 by major publications.
The band’s 2022 album, Pain Remains, further solidified their status. Critics praised its ambitious fusion of deathcore, symphonic metal, and blackened death metal. Many described it as a project that transcended its genre, with intricate orchestration and emotional depth not often seen in extreme metal.
Frontman Will Ramos, known for his dynamic vocal range, expressed gratitude: “We’re honored and humbled. This recognition reflects the passion and dedication of our fans and the entire metal community.”
The Global Music Awards, renowned for celebrating excellence across musical genres, acknowledged Lorna Shore’s innovative contributions and their role in redefining the boundaries of heavy music.
With a new album, I Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me, slated for release later this year, Lorna Shore continues to push the envelope, solidifying their legacy as pioneers in the metal world. This recognition is not just a triumph for the band, but a milestone for deathcore and heavy music fans around
the globe.
