Einsamkeit brings to the table a flair for drama and theatricality - two aspects Lacrimosa would forthwith nurture and cultivate. The songs are generally lengthy and weighty affairs; isolated vistas of morose, forlorn vocals, drawn out keyboards, sparse guitars, cellos, violins, accordions. Very intimate and focused in on their common theme of "einsamkeit," but also quite towering and epic in their tragic grandeur.
