Shameless Tuesdays: Livre 147 | LOVELORN DOLLS

Looking through LOVELORN DOLLS's influences, I could've imagined we would've been the best of pals in high school. The Belgium-based goth metal duo unleashes a bountiful of delightful horrors in their latest album Deadtime Stories. Despite its Cryptkeeper-like pun title, the only laughter found here is the psychotic kind, with songs like "A Heart Cries", "Beautiful Chaos", and "Another Night on Earth" delivering ground-shaking melodies that'd wake up the dead. But fear not, my dear children, as LOVELORN DOLLS pull back the spooky curtain in this week's Shameless Tuesdays to showcase what influenced their night-bumping persona...

Here's what LOVELORN DOLLS have to say about this week's playlist:

The playlist is a mix of influences from Bernard and Kristell. Bernard's tastes are more 80s heavy hard metal, while Kristell's are more 90s emo synth rock influences. For Bernard we therefore find pieces from Queen, AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Rammstein, Dream Theater, Epica, Anathema, ...

For Kristell, we have songs from Placebo, The Smashing Pumpkins, Maneskin, Blink 182, Duran Duran, The Cure, Garbage, Billie Eilish, A-Ha, Madonna, Prince, ...

We also wanted to highlight some very appreciated colleagues: Night Club, The Birthday Massacre, Lacuna Coil, Helalyn Flowers, Al1ce.

The list has 48 videos at the moment, but could contain 500 because we are big music listeners, and there are so many songs that we like that it's very difficult to make a playlist. Enjoy!
