Cinema Strange

Cinema Strange is a deathrock group based in Los Angeles, California, United States. Their performances also incorporate film, dance, and visual art. The band is infamous in the North American gothic scene for their unique and theatrical stage shows, sometimes involving up to a dozen or more actors and performance artists. Their music, while originating humbly in 1994 as a high-tempo post-punk expression, has evolved into a bizarre and exciting species of musical storytelling, breaking new ground and taking over where bands like the Virgin Prunes left off. After two self-released records and two albums with the German label Trisol, they have left an unidentifiable but very real mark on the world gothic scene. Read more on Last.fm.
