Lacuna Coil

Here is a list of songs from my favorite band, Lacuna Coil. Enjoy.

From Wikipedia: Lacuna Coil is an Italian band from Milan formed in 1994. Formerly known as Sleep of Right and Ethereal, the band was inspired by the combination of gothic imagery and music, and the members have been known, musically, for composing midtempo songs consisting of prominent guitar lines and contrasting dual female/male vocal harmonies to help create a melodic, detached sound. Much of the band's recent material, however, sees a heavier and more down-tuned style, featuring a more distinct bass line and a higher mixing of the guitars within the songs. The band's 2006 release, Karmacode, peaked at number 28 on the Billboard 200. Their latest release, Shallow Life, debuted at number 16 on the Billboard charts. The album marks the band diverging their sound from gothic metal to straight-forward alternative metal. They are considered the premiere act of the goth metal scene, helping pioneer it, and popularizing the genre. As of August 2010, Lacuna Coil have nearly sold 2 million records.
