Tristania

Regarded as one of the world's premiere goth metal bands, Norway's Tristania have earned their reputation through risk-taking creativity, unquestionable talent, and perhaps more than anything else, an impressive consistency from release to release. First coming together in 1996, Tristania took the uncommon step of showcasing three separate vocalists of wildly divergent styles to represent their lyrics. All of their early albums fared incredibly well across Europe, gaining them inroads into North and South America and elevating Tristania to headliner status to boot. Subsequent releases helped to further solidify the bands international presence. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
