Autumn Tears
Autumn Tears is an international dark wave band formed in September 1995 by Erika Swinnich and Ted Tringo. Their music has characteristics of gothic rock and industrial rock, utilizing operatic orchestration in lieu of more conventional rock instrumentation.
Autumn Tears was established in September 1995 by keyboardist and pianist Ted Tringo. The group's debut album, Love Poems for Dying Children - Act I was released in April 1996. This album featured symphonic arrangements influenced by ancient chants, classical music, and contemporary artists such as Dead Can Dance, Anchorage, Stoa, and Enya. The initial tracks for the album were recorded at West Record Studios, motivating Tringo to release music independently through his own label, Dark Symphonies.
In May 1997, Autumn Tears released their follow-up album, Love Poems for Dying Children...Act II: The Garden of Crystalline Dreams.
Originally, the initial release of Act I was slated to be a limited run of 2000 copies. However, in response to an unexpected surge of demand, a decision was made to reissue it in 1998. This re-release featured a revamped layout and artwork, accompanied by remixed and remastered tracks. Notably, the repress introduced a bonus track titled "The Intermission," notable for marking Jennifer Judd's inaugural vocal contribution to the band.
In 1999, Autumn Tears unveiled a mini-LP named Absolution, which was followed by their third and concluding full-length album of the Love Poems trilogy in 2000, titled Love Poems for Dying Children - Act III - Winter and the Broken Angel.
In 2004, the band embarked on the production of their fifth album, Eclipse. This marked a notable expansion in their musical horizons as they welcomed new talents into their fold. Among these additions was Laurie Ann Haus, a female vocalist whose harmonies complemented lead vocalist Erica Swinnich Tandy across the majority of the album's tracks.
In 2007, Autumn Tears released The Hallowing, sparking speculation among listeners about the future of the band. The uncertainty surrounding their trajectory was addressed in the liner notes of the 2008 re-issue of Love Poems - Act I, where it was clarified that the band hadn't disbanded but was rather taking a hiatus.
In 2018, the band made a notable return with an EP titled The Origin of Sleep. Collaborating with talents like Irish harpist Brona McVittie, Tom Moth, John Clark, Terran Olson, and Jennifer Judd, the EP showcased Autumn Tears' dedication to their craft. Mastered by Peter Bjärgö at Erebus Odora studio, the EP marked a significant milestone for the band.
