The Sins of Thy Beloved
The Sins of Thy Beloved was a gothic doom metal band, formed in Bryne, Norway in November 1996.
Despite years of a rumored reunion, Pete Johansen officially announced that they had split up in 2013. That same year, band members Anders Thue and Stig Johansen formed the band Savn with Midnattsol singer Carmen Elise Espenæs.
The band was formed by Glenn Morten Nordbø, Arild Christensen, and Stig Johansen. They initially went under the name "Purgatory" but they soon decided to change their name to something more original.

The band was formed by Glenn Morten Nordbø, Arild Christensen, and Stig Johansen. They initially went under the name "Purgatory" but they soon decided to change their name to something more original. Anita Auglend and Ola Aarrestad joined the band shortly thereafter, and they recorded their first demo "All Alone" in January-February 1997.Anders Thue and Ingfrid Stensland then joined before they recorded their second demo "Silent Pain" in January 1998. Pete Johansen played violin on the demo, though he had not officially joined the band until the recording of their first full-length album "Lake of Sorrow" later in 1998. They toured across Europe, before recording their second full-length album "Perpetual Desolation" in 2000. During the following tour, Anita Auglend, Ingfrid Stensland, and Anders Thue grew weary of traveling and left the band in 2001. A live performance was released on CD and VHS in 2001, though it was not distributed worldwide and is thus very hard to come by. The band has been dormant since the departure of its three members. Pete Johansen has since left to play the violin on several Tristania albums.
The band is often compared to gothic metal bands such as Tristania and Theatre of Tragedy, mainly because of the band's combination of a female soprano voice with male death grunts; this trait is common to gothic metal in general, and is known as the "Beauty and the Beast". Their music features death metal/doom metal rhythmics enhanced by the prominent use of violins, especially on the "Lake of Sorrow" album, typical of many gothic doom metal bands. Their live recordings offer a sound closer to traditional death metal than their studio albums which make heavy use of arrangements and effects.
In 2007, it was rumored that Anita Auglend had returned to the band, although these rumors were never confirmed.
Members of the band included Glenn Morten Nordbø (guitars, vocals), Arild Christensen (guitars, vocals), Ola Aarrestad (bass), Stig Johansen (drums) , Maike Olaisen (keyboards), Anita Auglend (vocals), Ingfrid Stensland (keyboards and piano), Anders Thue (keyboards and piano), and Pete Johansen (violin).

The Sins of Thy Beloved Lyrics
Until the dark
I'm searching for my love
Under the stars
I'm fading all apart
My heart is stolen
Taken away
Like they said
When I have found
As we stay there
Turn the faith in love
I see you here
With me but I fear the day
For you
Hear my dear
I watch the land
And the window fallen down
I feel the pain
Inside of me like a cloud
No one can save me
The time will come for my death
I think of you and wish me into an another live
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
I see you here with me
But I fear the dead
For you hear my dear
I watch the land and the window fallen dark
I feel the pain inside of me like a cloud
No one can save me
The time will come for my death
I think of you and wish me into an another live
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
Feel my tears

Until the dark
I'm searching for my love
Under the stars
I'm fading all apart
My heart is stolen - taken away
Like they said
When I have found
As we stay there
Turn the faith in love
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
Hear, my dear
I watch the land
And the window falling down
I feel the pain
Inside of me like a cloud
No one can save me
The time will come for my death
I think of you and wish me into an another life
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
Hear, my dear
I watch the land
And the window falling down
I feel the pain
Inside of me like a cloud
No one can save me
The time will come for my death
I think of you
And wish me into another live
I see you here with me
But I fear the day for you
Feel my tears

Me recuerda el verdadero amor el más puro lo más anhelado inalcanzable y hermoso una composición extraordinaria la voz magistral y los acompañamientos son todo un deleite nótese el silencio a la mitad de la canción y vuelve al principio de la misma es un rollon!

Probably my favorite "sins of thy beloved" song
Valentino Perrucci
No. They wrote a lot of good songs. Their two albums are real masterpieces. And it's sad they didn't keep on.

When I hear gothic music..I like to hear the male grungy voice. I never really like woman voices in gothic music. BUT.....when I heard this song..I was like OMG! How beautiful this voice sounds!! I love it and I changed my mind about woman voices. To tell you the truth...I love her voice cause it sounds beautiful and angelic and not "opera sounding" like other female artitsts. This song is a Masterpiece! and the vocals are fantastic!
