In 2015, Lee Lauer of Aslan Faction approached Jim Semonik (Electronic Saviors/Rein[Forced]) at a KMFDM show. Jim's band, Rein[Forced], was opening the gig. They became fast friends and share a mutual love of industrial music. Lee approached Jim about working on a project and thus Red Lokust was born. Their debut album "The Repercussions of Shedding Your Skin" is a relentless assault on the mind as well as the dance floor. Dealing with subjects of personal change, selfishness, paranoia and different points of view, "Repercussions" is a solid album through and through and includes the singles "When We Knew You", "Judgement Chamber" and "Mistakes Were Made" Their first track, "Speechless", will appear on the high profile Electronic Saviors 4 compilation this June. The album will also include bonus remixes by Leaether Strip and Interface and will be mastered by Reza Udhin of Inertia and Killing Joke. The debut album will be released on Jim's Distortion Productions label and will include stunning artwork by Byron Winton. The band will be playing the first ever Red Lokust shows this Summer as part of the Electronic Saviors 4 tour
