After the said releases, the band was granted a deal with Napalm Records, which included five albums. A harpist was added to the band's line-up and they proceeded to record Memorandum (1999).
Burning: A Wish from 2001 was Lacrimas Profundere's first album to receive attention from the international specialized press. This album featured the removal of the band's classical elements to some degree, and was also the first time they employed baritone vocals, supplied by Oliver's brother, Christopher Schmid. Their first international tour then began, including countries of Europe and Latin America.
Lacrimas Profundere's subsequent albums were Fall, I Will Follow from 2002 and Ave End from 2004.
Filthy Notes For Frozen Hearts received considerable attention from Jackass star Bam Margera and the songs "My Velvet Little Darkness", "Short Glance", "Should" and "Sweet Caroline" along with a vocal excerpt from "Sad Theme for a Marriage" were played on his show Bam's Unholy Union.
In April 2007, Christopher Schmid, the band's founding member's brother and vocalist left the band; citing prolonged stress from touring. It did not take long to find a new vocalist: Peter Kafka, who also sings for the German band Sonicslave. The former singer Christopher Schmid still takes part of the writing of the new lyrics, however, and has occasionally been seen singing for the band in concerts. A few months later bassist Daniel Lechner left the band and vocalist Peter Kafka became the new bassist. Rob Vitacca employed as the new vocalist, who also sings for the German Rock band Lost. Long time keyboardist Christian Steiner also left the band, but supplied some parts for the new album. Songs For The Last View was released in the summer of 2008. This was the first album featuring their new singer, Rob Vitacca.
Lacrimas Profundere's, The Grandiose Nowhere was released on 30 April 2010. The album spawned two singles "The Letter" and "Lips". Videos for each song were made; they also toured in places across Asia and South America.
Antiadore was released on May 24, 2013, with two music videos for "My Release in Pain" and "Antiadore", as their last album for the contract with Napalm Records.
In June 2016, Lacrimas Profundere signed with a new label, Oblivion/SPV, whom they collaborated with for the production and distribution of their eleventh studio album, Hope is Here, which was released on August 12, 2016. With the release of said album, the band moved slightly away from their classic gothic tendencies, in lieu of a sound resembling more closely that of alternative rock. Following the release of Hope is Here, the band toured across Germany and Austria.
In May 2018, Oliver Schmid announced through the bands' social media and on their website, that Rob Vitacca had decided to leave the band in pursuit of other musical projects, "LACRIMAS just cannot work without complete and constant dedication. And giving such a full-time commitment simply isn't possible for Rob anymore." The band took very little time to find a new vocalist, Julian Larre, who is also a founding member of the Finnish band Lessdmv.
In celebration of 25 years as a band, the band went back to the band's roots with a more gothic sound and guttural voices on Bleeding the Stars. This was the first album featuring their new vocalist, Julian Larre.
Reminiscence
Lacrimas Profundere Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For me my...
Somehow restless
Annoying
Peacefully, to all
For our time
Feeling
Could it be, you
Become, to enthrone everything
What will be, to flow in nothing
And if there is a god, everyone
Would be just a remembrance
For him, not to forget life...
The opening lines of Lacrimas Profundere's song Reminiscence give us insight into the emotional turmoil felt by the singer. The use of the word "you" points to someone else's pain, while "Tears are in you" could imply deep sorrow or regret. Meanwhile, the singer experiences restlessness and annoyance, suggesting their own suffering. The line "Peacefully, to all" is an interesting contrast, as it implies a sense of calm or acceptance despite the previous agitation.
Line by Line Meaning
Tears are in you
You are sad and emotional
For me my...
You feel empathy or sympathy for the singer, but the next line is cut off or unheard
Somehow restless
You feel uneasy or anxious
Annoying
You find something irritating or bothersome
Peacefully, to all
You wish peacefulness to everyone
For our time
You are thinking in terms of the present or future
Feeling
You are experiencing emotions or sensations
Could it be, you
You suspect someone of something or are questioning their involvement
The past is all what we will
The past is all we have left or all we can think about
Become, to enthrone everything
It is important for us to gain control and dominance over everything
What will be, to flow in nothing
The future is unpredictable and uncertain
And if there is a god, everyone
Even if there is a god, everyone is insignificant in the grand scheme of things
Would be just a remembrance
We are only remembered as memories
For him, not to forget life...
The reference to god suggests that life is fleeting, and we should live our lives to the fullest while we can

This song is beautiful

Una de las canciones que ha enriquecido mi vida, donde cierras los ojos y tu alma se desprende para difuminarse en lo etéreo de la energía que manipula el Universo, tus emociones se diluyen en la armonía violenta de las guitarras que acarician el alma.
Saxon Cavebeast
Sounds Anathema-influenced, but with their own twist to the sound. Very beautiful.
