Chanson de la Croisade (2010)

In 2010, a second concept album, Chanson de la Croisade, was released. The album has more symphonic elements while still embracing the folk metal roots. The story of the album deals with the prosecution of the Cathars, members of a Christian religious movement that appeared in the Languedoc region of France and other parts of Europe in the 11th century. Chanson de la Croisade was recorded in the Midas studio and the Red Left Hand studio.
In 2012 Lemuria won the Graspop Metal Meeting Talent Quest competition, granting them the title of 'Graspop band of the year 2012'.[2] After a short break in 2014, the band was reformed with a new vocalist and guitar player. Since then, the band played at several festivals including Kraken, Mass Death, Elftopia, Devil's Rock and the Hellhammer Festival.
