VIOLET TEARS are a talented five member ensemble from Italy, performing melancholic and beautiful songs which embody a classical gothic expression. A thick atmospheric sound is originated by a harmonious blend of washy guitars, cavernous percussives, striking synth melodies, and unique female and male vocals. Their music will appeal to fans of traditional gothic rock, shoegazer, ethereal, and doom metal. "This is the sort of stuff that you’d get on 4AD or Tess...guitars, lush synth layered soundscapes, a romantic, decadent, neo-classic attitude and vocals above the threshold of excellence." - Dark Life Magazine, Germany "This Italian combo bring us back to the good old wave influences and heavier gothic elements." - Side-Line Magazine, Belgium
