Flowing Tears is a band from Saarland, Germany. Formed in 1994, their original band name was Flowing Tears & Withered Flowers, which they used on their first two releases, Swansongs and Joy Parade. On Swansongs, Manfred Bersin contributed the male vocals.
With the release of Serpentine two years later, the band would build on the work they did with Jade, adding a slightly more up tempo, less depressing sound. After the release of Serpentine, Stefanie Duchêne had to leave the band. Her pregnancy was incompatible with the high sights of the band. She is currently working on her solo career. Their current vocalist is Helen Vogt. With a sound similar to that of Serpentine, and Vogt’s vocal similarities with Stefanie Duchêne’s voclas, the band released their 5th studio album, Razorbliss.
On October 20, 2004, just seven months after the release of “Razorbliss”, two founding members of Flowing Tears, Björn Lorson and Cristian Zimmer, died in a car accident.
Exactly 4 years after the accident, on October 20, 2008 they released their sixth studio album, titled Thy Kingdom Gone. It is a concept album containing 12 songs, along with artwork made by Seth Siro Anton, who is known for doing artwork with Moonspell, Soilwork, and Paradise Lost.
Current line-up
* Helen Vogt - Vocals (2004-)
* Benjamin Buss - Guitars, programming, keyboards (1994-)
* David Vogt - Bass guitar (2007-)
* Stefen Gemballa - Drums (2002-)
Former members
* Lena Fischer - Keyboards (1994-c. 1995)

sound wise i supose Flowing Tears are much closer to bands like Tiamat and Nosferatu, then they are to any female fronted band....this, along with slightly more fluid keybord lines almost make Flowing Tears a unique band on the FFM scene

Silentium and Flowing Tears do sound "similar" in the vocals department. As in most of the female fronted metal bands have singers that have a high tone of voice, whilst both Silentium's and Flowing Tears' singers have a lower one. But do they sound alike to the point of comparing both bands? I'm not sure.

I don't think Silentium even really sound like Flowing Tears, from what I remember of them. I don't think anyone sounds all that similar to FT, hence why I still like them after getting bored of the gothic metal scene for that exact reason (they all sound the same).

Uh, what? The only band that I can think of that even sounds remotely like Flowing Tears is Silentium.

Holy crap, what is with this neverending wave of gothic bands that sound identical to one another? Does it ever end?

I love both Jade, Serpentine and Thy Kingdom Gone. Awesome albums. I like a little less Razorbliss, but it's a really great album too. This band is incredibly awesome. [2] I don't like Joy Parade :S.

@Nemesis_11, I know this comparison doesn't make sense, but I prefer Helen's voice anyway. Both are good, but, sopranos and so sweet voices are a like a cliche in gothic metal, but Helen's voice is unique, in my opinion
