BIO :
TEARS OF MARTYR started back in the late nineties in the Canary Islands (Spain). At that time the band had clearly a doom death flavor but they already showed the key elements that can be easily identified nowadays, like the distinctive use of lead voices and classical orchestration arrangements to create their songs.
Despite of being in a very restricted scene the band kept growing and earned respect from the national media and his local fan base. They recorded a couple of demos and appeared in several compilations and they had the chance to open for international bands like Dark Tranquillity, To Die-For or Swallow the Sun.
In 2007 they moved to Madrid (Spain) and finally in 2009 they recorded their studio debut "Entrance" which was released under the german independent label STF in 2010, with positive feedback from the international media. Being in Madrid they have also opened for EPICA, Draconian and Dark Moor.
In august 2012 TEARS OF MARTYR entered New Sin Studios (Luigi Stefanini, Italy) where they have recorded their second full-length album "Tales" produced by Enrik García (Dark Moor).
With this new studio work they have polished their style, resulting in a well balanced and fresh mix for the listener, who will be immersed in a journey where the emotions play one more time the main role.
“Tales” will be released with Massacre Records on April 26, 2013.
