The Gothic Metal band ATARGATIS (Massacre Records) was founded in 1997. The term “Atargatis” represents the name of the Syrian goddess of existence. “ATARGATIS“ – allegory for the creating power and the origin of live, for the urge for mystic experience, for the unfathomable and inscrutable, both outside of human spheres and deep within… Stephanie Luzie’s voice (also singer of the Austrian Gothic band Darkwell) is altering with Lord Lornhold’s male dark voice. Atmospheric melodies, violin parts and orchestral lines complete the varying sound of ATARGATIS. Groovy as well as aggressive though mostly very melodic parts are followed by gentle, solemn passages and are thus interweaved to a mystical sound material.
