Theatres des Vampires
Encyclopedia
Theatres des Vampires is an Italian gothic metal
band with strong black metal
influences, mostly noted for the predominant theme of vampirism within their lyrics.
The band's members expressed a fascination with vampires and anything connected to them, earning themselves and their music the title "vampiric metal" from their contemporaries. The band created an image of vampirism in their stage performance and within the lyrical themes and atmospheres of their music, which contributed heavily to the gaining of their fanbase.
The band has produced ten albums in ten years with the English label Plastic Head, and has gained more recognition within the metal scene in Europe, South America and Russia, partially because of the band's participation in various festivals around the world. These include Vampyria
III in London in 1999, Gods of Metal
in Italy in 2000, Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig
in 2003 and in 2006, Gotham in London in 2004, and Female Voices Festival in Wieze, Belgium in 2006.
In 2003 the band toured with Christian Death
throughout Europe, and recorded an album with Valor of Christian Death and Gian Pyres
of Cradle of Filth
as special guests.
Since 2004 Sonya Scarlet
has remained the solo vocalist and front of the band, replacing her previous role as backing vocals.
Scarlet sometimes cuts herself with razors at performances, freely letting fans drink her blood, promising them the gift of immortality. In 2005 several English clubs forbade her performing the display of bloodletting, because it violates English laws against the incitement to commit suicide.
On 28 November 2005 Aural Music released the album Pleasure and Pain. Distributors throughout Europe bought the album and it was published with permission in Europe, South America, the USA, Russia, and Japan.
On 19 March 2007 they released Desire of Damnation. It is a double CD, with live songs from The Addiction Tour 2006 and some new studio songs and remixes.
Guitarist Robert Cufaro
("Morgoth") left the band in 2006 and was replaced by Stephan Benfante.
