The Shroud - Ophelia

[@satarnag]

Lydia has such a beautiful voice. I used to play her CDs at night just so that I can go to sleep. I also ran into her a few times when she was working at Hot Topic in Fresno. She was very pleasant person and very down to Earth. I hope she is doing well.

[@rawnnie]

Love this band, her voice is so atmospheric I feel.

[@Forestmountains1]

The Shroud is by far one of my favorite bands. It's ashame how most people don't appreciate music like this, especially nowadays...

[@edgarviedma]

i hope someone will post a This Ascension video they are as great as The Shroud. Thank you for posting this video.

[@LusterOfDarkness]

I like this song,gives me the 80's vibe, some good singing and an attractive lead singer. I'm going to listen to more of these guy's stuff,I've never actually heard of their stuff until now,keep them coming.

[@AntiMusick]

yes they were called The Shroudettes and there is a video of one of there first performances... but even years before that there is a performance of the singer Lydia doing cover songs of Siouxsie at a HS talent show. I call that group 'Nothing Obscene', If I find that tape I'll try to get it on here.

[@shadow27b]

I still remember my friend turning me onto The Shroud and Requiem in White back in '92. If I got nothing ese out of college I got that. Great video thanks for sharing.

[@AstarothFallen]

so goth! so trippy! so beautiful!

Blossoms floating on the face of the lake Marks the watery grave of the fair Ophelia... Currents moving motes that fly between the light Dancing to the sound of angels Singing aloud and rushing on and on... Soundless flowers falling to the rippling lake Covering the evidence Of the fair Ophelia... Humming ringing whirlpools moving roots of white Weighing down limbs in velvet Sinking down and singing on and on... Ripples washing on the sand of the shore Echoing the silent sigh Of the fair Ophelia... Currents moving motes that fly between the light Dancing to the sound of angels Singing aloud and rushing on Humming ringing whirlpools moving roots of white Weighing down limbs in velvet Sinking down and singing on and on...

I love this video and this band. I wish there were more bands like them around although I heard they recently got back together

Thank you for the Shroud videos, I am on a chat/mailing list about them on which people talk about their videos and I have been longing to see them! They are as wonderful as I thought they might be.

[@mildredwinter]

[@aikbajen]

I love this band and she is sooo beautiful.

[@CoryTheRaven]

[@thekillinggame]

This song reminds me so much of the book The Lost Souls, i got into both at the same time.

[@rubymee1]

Delightfully gothic!

[@DominiqueDiablo777]

asleep by dawn magazine has good cds when they came out. I used to get excited to see it in the mail.

[@Miltonnewyork]

The whole Drowning dreams album is good, they should had made more videos for some of the other songs.

[@xxdomoxxkunxx]

[@ingridbats1814]

Being Ethereal wave this is really good, favourite song from this band

[@Miltonnewyork]

[@forrestgreen8110]

Classic.

[@AntiMusick]

I've got some really old poor quality live performance of This Ascension from the early 1990s on video.

[@ImmortalChaos]

She's beautiful

[@buscadordesuenos9808]

Someone have the bass tab?

[@rawnnie]

Was there even any video for "Green Velvet"? That is by far one of my favourite songs from this unique and amazing band.

[@AntiMusick]

just watch it on here.

[@AntiMusick]

they don't have videos for those, there might have been plans for one for 'Pandora', but it never got made, I do have some raw footage of their photo shot session for 'In The Garden' but the video tape is damaged.

[@jerrymiller8076]

saw them live in sanfransisco with Lycia!

[@GhostLove09]

Goth or non-Goth this song is epic.

[@sergiosweven]

alguien tiene el video de propaganda magazine? posteen el de deep six por favor, a y los performans de john koviak y fred berger, exelente video, the shroud en 1992 era imposible adquirir algo de ellos que chido que sigan con la vieja escuela goth

[@JanderVK]

Lydia Fortner will forever be my Gawth Goddess....

[@edgarviedma]

[@spaceycasey871]

I'd rather drown in a lake of argon.. .

[@mildredwinter]

please send me pixy-led!

[@myheadhurtss]

She looks like this girl from my dreams. Hot gothic girl that would change my life. Seems like im still living in my own world of imagination. Well fuck

[@Kaatbad]

This is more Romanesque than Gothic IMO.

[@Tekelt]

Sorry, but I have to say Patricia Morrison any day, m8 :)
