Lacrimas Profundere

Lacrimas Profundere, a band with a name Latin for "to shed tears," has carved a unique niche in music with their melancholic and gothic soundscapes. Founded in 1993 by guitarist Oliver Nikolas Schmid in Germany, the band initially started with a heavy doom metal influence but evolved over time to incorporate elements of gothic rock and dark metal. Their music is characterized by sorrowful melodies, deep atmospheric layers, and emotional vocals—traits that have garnered them a dedicated following within the gothic metal community.

Throughout their career, Lacrimas Profundere has undergone several lineup changes, with Oliver Schmid being the sole constant member. The band's stylistic evolution is evident in their discography, marked most recently by albums such as "Hope Is Here" (2016), which showcased a more introspective and somber tone, to "Bleeding the Stars" (2019), which witnessed a return to heavier and darker themes. Songs like "I Knew and Will Forever Know" and "The Kingdom Solicitude" have aptly reflected their continuous innovation within the gothic genre, while acoustic experiments like "Acousticadore" reveal the diverse capabilities of Lacrimas Profundere. Despite the changes and challenges, the band has consistently delivered music that resonates with themes of loss, love, and longing, making them a beloved fixture in their genre.
