They are damn awesome.... i seriously recommend listening to them, they are quite different from anything else i have heard... Anyone else out there listen to them?

Yeah, I know Lacrimosa. I love the arrangements of the songs and the instrumental aspect, but the singer starts to grate on my nerves after a while, he really can't sing
Still, a cool band and they have some really great songs [img]smile.gif[/img]

Edit: HOLY CRAP! What's *THAT* next to my post?? Eeeeeeeek! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]

that's a little harsh.... he is not that bad... or it might be that he is singing in a foreign language so i don't notice as much.... but he has cool hair [img]tongue.gif[/img]

LOL, not harsh at all, he really can't sing! Now that's not necessarily a bad thing, there are lots of singers lacking in technical skill who make up for it with originality, charisma or sheer enthusiasm, but trust me, after a while he'll start to grate on your nerves ever so slightly. Still, I didn't say I didn't like the band, in fact I think they're pretty good! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
If you like that kind of music, you might want to try some Nightwish, Therion or Angizia as well BTW [img]smile.gif[/img]

Where are Lacrimosa from? Can you describe their tunes? I'm always on the lookout for more good music to add to my library [img]smile.gif[/img] .

And Mel, I have no idea what that God-Awful avatar is supposed to be. Must be a pretty recent addition though, as most members of your rank have all of a sudden got him doing his beautiful 'just-been-kicked-in-the-balls' face alongside their posts as of today.

Lacrimosa could best be described as a sort of gothic rock I suppose... They often use classical orchestras as well and at least one album that I know of stole heavily from Mozart. [img]graemlins/nono.gif[/img] Heavy guitars, male and female vocals (sometimes choirs), lyrics mostly in German, gothy atmosphere... It's definitely a 'love it or hate it' kinda band though... [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
I believe they're from Austria or Germany.
Oh and don't get me started on the avatar... *shudder* Think I prefer the one I have on Pandemonium
The Egyptian avatar I had before was really cool too... want it back! [img]graemlins/5bloodymurder.gif[/img]

LOL, as a matter of fact I can usually take her or leave her - not really my type. But in the pic used for that avatar's just really cool! Love the expression on her face
