Italian Music

We featured the Italian band Theatres des Vampires back in January 2009. Here’s another video from the said group entitled Carmilla.

Theatres des Vampires is an Italian extreme gothic metal band with strong black metal influences, mostly noted for the predominant theme of vampirism within their lyrics. The name Theatres des Vampires was inspired by a fictional location created by Gothic fantasy writer Anne Rice of the same name. Rice’s Theatres des Vampires is a Parisian theatre in which vampires pretend to be mortal actors, their performances consisting of the feeding on mortals disguised as part of a play and staged in front of human audiences. The location is mentioned in several of Rice’s books, including Interview With the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat.
