Virgin Black is an Australian band that combines gothic-doom, and symphonic metal influences for an emotional and dramatic sound.
After independently releasing their first two recordings, Virgin Black signed to Massacre Records and The End Records to record their first two albums Sombre Romantic and Elegant and Dying, which received critical acclaim and greatly expanded their international fanbase. Their travels include a 2004 Australian tour with Opeth, a tour of the USA West Coast, and the Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Germany. The band resides in Adelaide, Australia.
On March 10, 2006, The End Records announced in a press release that Virgin Black will be releasing three albums simultaneously in 2006. The trio of albums is collectively titled Requiem. First, Requiem - Pianissimo is a strictly classically-oriented album featuring instrumentation from the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, choral singing, and solo singers. Second, Requiem - Mezzo Forte will build on the styles Virgin Black used in their previous albums. Lastly, Requiem - Fortissimo will also feature a classical influence; but it will primarily have a death/doom metal sound, heavier than anything else Virgin Black had ever played before this point in their history. As of July 23, 2006, Virgin Black has announced that the albums will be released following New Year in a staggered time scale. Starting with Requiem - Mezzo Forte, followed by Requiem - Fortissimo and lastly the all classical affair, Requiem - Pianissimo.
In late March, 2007 Virgin Black will begin an international touring schedule at home in Australia with Arcturus. This coincides with the release of their trilogy centerpiece Requiem - Mezzo Forte. Mark Kelson from The Eternal will join Virgin Black on this tour as a session guitarist. (Virgin Black - Wikipedia)
