Love Lost But Not Forgotten
Love Lost But Not Forgotten, also known as Love Lost, LLBNF, was an American screamo band from St. Peters, Missouri. They formed in 1997 with former members of End Over End and The Paxidils. The band was known for intense onstage energy and unusual vocals, sometimes featuring two lead singers and three guitarists, including Scott Fogelbach and Jason Emerick.
They released two demos (1998 and 1999’s Unfound) and a split 7" with Joshua Fit For Battle in 1999 on Normal Records. After adding third guitarist A.J. Doerhoff, they signed with Happy Couples Never Last and released a self-titled debut album in June 2000, which earned praise in underground punk circles. They toured with bands like Pg. 99 and later put out a second full-length, Upon the Right, I Saw a New Misery, around 2002. Schmitz and Doerhoff left before that album was completed. The recordings were later reissued digitally by Robotic Empire’s Archivist imprint. Matt Prater left the band in August 2002, and the group used short-term drummers afterward.
The band went on hiatus in April 2003 and officially broke up in October 2003, playing their last show in July that year. After the breakup, Grady and Fogelbach played in For The Last Time (with Fogelbach also joining One Cycle Occur), and Nathan Prater joined Unholy Effers.
Love Lost But Not Forgotten reunited three times for one-off shows: January 15, 2005 at the Creepy Crawl (featuring Fogelbach, Grady, Emerick, Nathan Prater and Matt Prater), July 2008 at the Fubar in St. Louis, and October 1, 2010 at the Fubar for a benefit show.
