The rebirth is here. With the new album ‘The Game’, Beyond The Labyrinth reinvents itself under the powerful moniker BTL.

The driving force behind this transformation is the rediscovered rock passion of frontman Johan Lotigiers, whose vocal presence breathes fresh energy into the band.

The result is a collection of brand-new, original compositions that strike a perfect balance between Melodic Hard Rock and Symphonic Rock. While "The Game" stands as the sixth studio album in the band’s rich history, it simultaneously marks a bold first chapter as BTL.

The tracks were brought to life by a "dream team" assembled by band leader Geert: keyboard wizard Sjoerd Bruyneel and drummer Michel Lodder return to the fold, joined by seasoned bassist Luc Van Lierde.

Since 1996, the band has built a solid reputation across the European live circuit:

6 albums (including "The Game") and numerous shows across Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, and France.

Shared the stage with rock legends such as Y&T, Uriah Heep, and Threshold.

World Finalist in the Global Battle Of The Bands (2012).

On stage, BTL builds their show around the new sound of "The Game". The setlist honors the glory days of classic rock, seamlessly blending brand-new material with fan favorites from the Beyond The Labyrinth era. BTL delivers craftsmanship, passion, and a sound that is both timeless and modern.
