Vesperian Sorrow

来自美国的黑金属乐队
Vesperian Sorrow is a symphonic black metal band from Austin, Texas founded in 1996. They were known as Unholy Descent in 1994 and changed their name to Vesperian Sorrow in Summer 1997.[1] Their lyrics tend to be less extreme than most black metal bands that cover themes of Satanism and Anti-Christianity. They cover instead; the cosmos, sorrow, sadness and darkness. Their name, Vesperian Sorrow, translates to; "sadness or sorrow in the evening hours."
After releasing their first demo, Unholy Descent in 1998, Vesperian Sorrow signed a deal with Displeased Records for the release of their debut album, Beyond the Cursed Eclipse in 1999 and continued with their second album, Psychotic Sculpture in 2001.[1] Before their third release, the band toured North America[3] expansively, and then went on short tours in England,[4] Germany and the Czech Republic to promote the album. Their third album, Regenesis Creation, was released in 2006 by their current label, Underscape Records,  their own label. Throughout 2007 and 2008 Vesperian Sorrow toured extensively across the U.S. and Canada, and played a couple select festivals in Mexico. Most recently in June of '09 they were hand picked for direct support for the legendary Mayhem in Monterrey. The band are currently in the studio working on new material and are actively searching for a new label to release their upcoming fourth album entitled Of Opiates and Accolades
