Lacrimosa is a gothic duo led by German Tilo Wolff, the main composer, and Finn Anne Nurmi. They are currently based in Switzerland, but originally from Germany. Originally counted among the bands of the Neue Deutsche Todeskunst genre, Lacrimosa have developed their style more towards powerful metal, but Gothic elements still remain. Their current musical style mixes gothic rock and heavy metal along with violin, trumpet and more classical instruments, although their musical development throughout the years has also led to changes in instrumentation. Lacrimosa's lyrics are written almost exclusively in German, although since the 1995 album ''Inferno'' every album has featured one or two songs in English, generally written by Anne Nurmi. Finnish has also appeared in the spoken intro to two songs ("Schakal" on ''Inferno'' and "The Turning Point" on ''Elodia'') and on a bonus track in a limited edition release of ''Fassade'' called ''Vankina''. Their lyrics are mainly about loneliness, sadness, darkness, despair and love. The band has sold more than 20,000 copies of each album in Germany but has also gained a large fanbase in Mexico and China.〔 ==Brief timeline== * 1990: Tilo Wolff releases a tape called ''Clamor'' using the band name of Lacrimosa. * 1991: Tilo Wolff founds a new record company called Hall of Sermon, as an independent label to publish Lacrimosa's records. * 1993: Anne Nurmi joins the solo project to play keyboard, becoming a permanent member soon after. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lacrimosa (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
