The band has esoteric stage personas similar to sword and sorcery fantasy, with the members wearing studded leather, cloaks and face paint.
In their albums' liner notes, their stage names and roles are exaggerated to sound mystical and otherworldly in nature; for example, guitarist and lyricist Wojtek Lisicki is credited as the "Earthshape" of the "Transcendental Protagonist" and credited for "Poesy of Spiritual Enlightenment/String Romanticism", with his proper roles given as a "Translation For Mortals".
Lost Horizon originated from the band Highlander, formed in 1990 with future HammerFall member Joacim Cans on vocals.
Heiman and Olsson left Lost Horizon two years later, putting the band on hiatus.
Their official website released three instrumental demos ("Wizard", "Spirit" and "Fire") in 2009, but no new musical activities have been announced since then.
