Lacrimosa Lichtgestalt

For its 30th anniversary this extremely beautiful box presents LACRIMOSA from all sides! Over three CDs, with a total playing time of three hours and forty minutes, the legendary 25th anniversary concert immerses the listener in LACRIMOSA's incomparable live atmosphere.

Lacrimosa is a gothic duo led by German Tilo Wolff, the main composer, and Finn Anne Nurmi. They are currently based in Switzerland, but originally from Germany. Originally counted among the bands of the Neue Deutsche Todeskunst genre, Lacrimosa have developed their style more towards powerful metal, but gothic elements still remain.
Their current musical style mixes gothic rock and heavy metal, along with violin, trumpet, and more classical instruments, although their musical development throughout the years has also led to changes in instrumentation.

"Zeitreise" is a collection of songs that ranges from the past into the prentent. It contains old songs, new arranged songs, and also a brand new track! "We are in the 30th year of Lacrimosa and I noticed in recent years that a not inconsiderable part of our audience has some trouble to grasp the entire work with its more than 100 compositions – which is of course more than understandable! Therefore, we feel the need to offer a compact journey through the history of Lacrimosa! And so the title Time Travel is to be taken literally, because in addition to the view into the musical history (as well as special versions of some songs) this double CD, with “Lass die Nacht nicht über mich fallen – Reprise” offers a radical new recording of this particular title and with “Drei Sekunden” an exclusive and completely new song!
