How many of you guys Listen to Theatre Of Tragedy?

I personally think they are good but surprisingly not too many people listen to them.

Of course their style is gothic but still, I am sure if you like Opeth, you will like their work although their music is not similar at all.

I enjoyed their fisrt album. she had a decent voice...and i saw them as a mellow madder mortem, but less aggression...and more concentration on beauty.
 
I thrashed Aegis to death used to listen to it like once a day. Havent heard it for about a year and a half, it makes me really depressed when ever I listen to it. Its a beautiful album.

The velvet darkness they fear was an allright album, i thought it was no were near as good as Aegis.
 
I own "Velvet Darkness They Fear"... good cover and all, but after listening to it few times... well, I'll put it like Don Corleone: :erk:

are theater of targedy and theatre of tragedy two different bands?

Theatre is also written Theater in English ( I think).

They are a Gothic Metal band with clean Female and harsh male vocals. Their melodies are both depressing and beautiful.

Their work is not that heavy but very Beautiful.


I dont have any of their albums but have some of their songs and I thought they were pretty good and wanted to share it with you guys.
I suggest every Opeth fan who likes the depressing side of Opeth (especially Morningrise fans) to give them a listen.

For anyone wanting to listen to them, I suggest listening to Seraptic Deviltry (wow what a song), Siren (BEAutiful) and Venus. They have a handful of other superb songs.
 
Theatre of Tragedy is a great band to expand one's vocabulary, they used to be really creative and charming.. but they are great no more, for they are making some techno stuff now...
Btw, "theater" is American English, "theatre" is British English :)

Yeah their new stuff is BAAAD.

But their old work is amazing.
 
I listen to the earlier ToT stuff. Everything from when they turned electronica sucks, as does the live album. It's pretty bad because they made a poor selection of songs.

Liv Kristine left the group and set up a more metal project with her husband from Atrocity called Leaves' Eyes. Good stuff and more metalesque. It appears she might have left because ToT didn't give her creative freedom, as well as deviating away from metal.

I don't want to be known as a correcter but it is Atrocity :wave:

Clearly not :)


I like ToT a lot, especially Velvet Darkness They Fear. I was first shocked by their new musical direction when Musique went out, but after a while I had to admit it was really good... the next one wasn’t really good IMO, and I think they won’t do anything better in the future...

Also one of the best show I’ve seen : on the Musique tour, in Belgium, it was perfect alchemy between old songs (“When he falleth” :loco: ...) and new ones (“City of Light”, “Machine”...). Saw them on next tour, it quite sucked...
