Ophelia's Sweet Demise

Biography:
The Milwaukee-based band formed in 1997 has gone through different lineups, but has retained its core writing members. After producing an EP and two full-length albums in earlier years: “Absinthe”, “Dark Serenade”, and “Ashes to Lashes”, and performing with noted acts such as The Damned, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, and Sunshine Blind, they began an extended hiatus in 2001. Daniel and Kat reformed Ophelia’s Sweet Demise in 2012, collaborating with previous members Jose Ramirez (guitar), Erik Gosnell (bass), and Brian Kuhn (guitar) to produce “Sonata Noire”. The new album draws from the band’s darkwave past with a touch more rock and sonic muscle, but retains the moody atmospheres of their previous work.
