LAKE OF TEAERS

　　LAKE OF TEARS是一支徘徊在doomy边缘的乐队，很多人因为它的音乐美妙凄凉而称之为Gothic Metal，实际上乐队也是由类似PARADISE LOST一般的Death Doom Metal，到与MOONSPELL相近的Gothic Metal，到融入许多PINK FLOYD式的迷幻元素，在这其中又加入了不少Stoner颗粒般的质感，最终乐队用舞曲般的步调离开了Metal这个舞台。以这样的过程诠释乐队的变化，总体来说忧郁的氛围是乐队力求追逐的目标，无论是采用哪一种方式，始终围绕这个宗旨。
　　92年LAKE OF TEARS在瑞典成立，成员分别来自其它乐队如Death Metal乐队CARNAL ERUPTION还有FORSAKEN GRIEF，93年春末乐队录制了第一张demo，这张Demo很快受到Black Mark 厂牌的注意，并一次与乐队签定了五张唱片的协议。
　　93年12月首张专集”Greater Art”在Stockholm的Sunlight录音室用了两个星期的时间录制完。
　　95年LAKE OF TEARS又开始准备第二张专集”Headstones”，这次由于有优秀的录音师参与，并且时间延长至一个月，这张专集令乐队有了很大的进步，同时”Headstones”也受到了好评和来自各处的掌声。
　　这张专集之后乐队参与了许多巡演，包括在欧洲国家的一些小型演出，这期间与VADER，TIAMAT，CREMATORY，EDGE OF SANITY，SAVATAGE，RAGE，THE GATHERING等乐队同台。
　　经过一段现场演出的历练后，乐队又钻进录音室开始了第三张专集”A Crimson Cosmos”的准备，97年1月在Stockholm的Soundtrade录音室，乐队完成了这张专集，这张专集较上一张又更大的突破，并且受到了舆论的推崇，爬上了德国Rock Hard当月最佳专集的排行榜。
　　乐队在创作录制新作品及现场演出练习临场经验之间徘徊，发行完第三张专集LAKE OF TEARS连续举行了三场演出，一场是与THEATRE OF TRAGEDY，HEAVENWOOD的，第二场是在Wacken open air和当地乐队一起，还有一场是在欧洲Out of the Dark节上与CREMATORY，THERION，DARK，GRAVEWORM等乐队一并。
　　99年代乐队继续发行专集，即他们的第四张专集”Forever Autumn”，乐队在原来的基础上加入了更忧郁的情绪，速度更慢，专集里有部分歌曲仍然是Metal的模式，但是有一些歌已经完全脱离了Metal的风格。
　　LAKE OF TEARS的风格到如今已经脱离了Metal的格局，但是直到去年乐队依旧和他们的老东家 bonding在一起，2002年的新作”The Neonai”依旧由他们发行，这正说明了乐队的作品还是适应市场的需求。
