LACRIMOSA
SCHATTENSPIEL

20 YEAR JUBILEE CAREER SPANNING DOUBLE DISC SET COMPRISED OF NEVER BEFORE RELEASED TRACKS
After 10 studio and 2 live albums and more than 100 songs, for the 20th jubilee it would have been more than expected for Lacrimosa to release a best of album but instead LACRIMOSA have surprisesed everyone with the double album 'Schattenspiel' (shadow play) on which they present 15 unreleased recordings from the past 20 years. And if this wasnn't enough, they added two brand new songs, which were composed just for this release. Reaching a 20 year jubilee is surely not ordinary esspecially when you keep in mind that for the last 20 years LACRIMOSA never signed a deal with a major record company. Despite the missing support of mass media or major music industry LACRIMOSA have reached various Top 10 positions in the charts of several countries and are one of the most successful German artists. Next to their cultural success several artists from rock, pop and classical music name LACRIMOSA as their source of inspiration. Thus the duo of the German Tilo Wolff and Finnish Anne Nurmi became the co-founders of music styles like Symphonic-Rock and Gothic-Metal and belong to the most important alternative music groups worldwide.
