Theatres des Vampires was originally formed as a melodic black metal band - from Rome, Italy. They gradually changed their style and evolved into gothic metal. They are mostly noted for the predominant theme of Vampirism within their lyrics.
The band’s members expressed a fascination with vampires and anything connected to them, earning themselves and their music the title vampiric metal from their contemporaries. The band created a coherent image of Vampirism in their stage performance and within the lyrical themes and atmospheres of their music, which contributed heavily to the gaining of their fan-base.
During their career, the band was first primarily influenced by symphonic black metal, but later tended to include differing influences, including: classical music, opera, darkwave, death rock, gothic rock and several Industrial sub-genres. Throughout this stylistic deviation, a few characteristics of the band’s music have remained consistent; Melancholic atmospheres and lyrics, vocal styles of akin to Gothic metal, and their Vampiric image.
The band has produced ten albums in ten years with the English label Plastic Head, and has gained more recognition within the metal scene in Europe, South America and Russia, partially due to the band’s participation in various festivals around the world. These include: Vampyria III in London in 1999, Gods of Metal in Italy in 2000, Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig in 2003 and in 2006, Gotham in London in 2004, Female Voices Festival in Wieze, Belgium in 2006.

If I remember correctly the first album could be considered as blackmetal, well as much as Cradle Of Filth's "Dusk and Her Embrace". To gothic metal genre this is still a very bizarre and dark band so the bm tag isn't any suprise to me.

i just can't understand what the fuck is wrong with some people, i mean, i have nothing against this band, their music is good, but WHY is this labelled as "black metal"? This have nothing to do with Black or Death Metal, this is more some dark/gothic metal... (some morons will attack me and blame me about "genres" but i don't care)
