Lovelyorn Dolls is a Belgian dark alternative/gothic rock band that has carved out a unique niche within the European music scene with their blend of haunting melodies, driving guitars, and atmospheric synths. The band was formed by Ladyhell (Kristell Lowagie) on vocals and Corpus Christi (Bernard Daubresse) who handles the instrumentation and production. Since their inception, the duo has been known for crafting a sonic tapestry that brings together elements of goth, metal, and electro.

The band's evocative name sets the stage for their aesthetic and sound—tender yet somber, akin to cherished playthings tinged with a sense of melancholy and loss. Their 2014 offering, "Japanese Robot Invasion," marked a significant milestone in their career, receiving a deluxe edition that exemplifies their penchant for vivid storytelling and intricate world-building within their albums. With follow-up releases like "Darker Ages" and its deluxe counterpart, Lovelorn Dolls continued to explore themes of darkness and introspection, weaving a narrative that resonates with fans of the dark music subculture. Their recent tracks such as "Dreamworld" and "Lullaby" stay true to their eerie yet captivating sound, solidifying their position as connoisseurs of gothic melodrama in music.
