Social Networking
Rooted in the glooming territories of human expression, SorrowfulAngels is a Greek/Polish band that manages to put out a combination of influences which form the solid foundation of their Dark Heavy Rock power.
Originally formed in 1999, SorrowfulAngels gathered as friends sharing the same need for emotional expression and soon started to land gigs in the greek underground club scene presenting their initial atmospheric material and gradually making a name for themselves.
During these years the band gigs sporadically, while in 2002 they manage to land some more high-profile gigs, like the one in the Chania Rock Festival in Crete where they shared the stage with acts like Anathema, U.D.O, Crossover and Deviser.
Unfortunately, though, internal problems started occurring and the band was put into hiatus by the founder of the band, Dariusz S., until everything was settled. After that, the sound of silence plagued the SorrowfulAngels realm...
7 years later, after a long hiatus and numerous lineup changes the band is finally back fresh and strong. With a steady lineup now on which conststs of:
Kostas Katikos Vocals
Dion Christodoulatos Vocals/Guitar
Dariusz Sipiora Guitars
George Mountaneas Bass
Fivos Andriopoulos - Drums
In 2009 they sign a record deal, enter the studio and finally record some brand new material making a very dynamic debut and signaling a new start as well as evolutionary changes in the composition.
Their first full album called "Ship In Your Trip", contains 10 darkly brooding melancholic songs which showcase how much the band has evolved throughout these painful years.
Along with the recordings , a videoclip of the song Denial directed by Bob Katsionis (Firewind) was made for the promotion of the upcoming album receiving very positive reviews.
During this same year the band continues to gig extensively throughout Greece, filling the gaps of the previous years.
They support Katatonia and Sirenia as well as Gothic Rock Icons, Star Industry, make appearances in the national TV stations, while at the same time are handpicked by legendary Claus Meine (Scorpions) himself to enter the final round of the Scorpions contest held in Greece. It was the first time ever in Greece that a Gothic Rock/Metal band ever achieved such an honor.
In February of 2010, Sorrowful Angels where voted as one of the 5 most important and promising heavy metal bands in Greeces Metal Hammer annual poll.
While a European Tour is on its way, things can only be interesting in the Sorrowful realm.
This is only the Beginning...

Second Life
(Music :Dion/Dariusz S.
Lyrics:Dion/Kostas K.)
If you touch me, I can't feel
If you force me, to reveal
Find a shelter for your own
All I give is nothing
Not for me cause I'm alone
All I feel is something
I remember all these years
My pain, my cries, my tears
All I feel is something more
And if you wake me, from my grave
I will send you
I will tell you, something brave
Sold my ways, I've seen the days
of an everlasting world
(Music/Lyrics-Dion)
Decisions made, rulers of fate
Make the call before its too late
Dont deny the reason to fight, hiding behind a lie
Dont pretend theres more to end this everlasting cry
Shadows fall , I recall - remnants of this life
Razorblade hysteria - cuts me like a knife
No hate in me , no empathy- I wont cross the line
Falling darkness , failing me - Falling deeper into me
Shades of darkness come again
Committing future, if not now then when?
We die on and on, thrown into surrounding flames
Its all tears - Let it rain
Its all fears - Let it bleed
Waiting in vain
A long stay
This soul, this rising soul
Living a lie without control
Enough for me but not for all
I drive between the lines of highway
This is my lie, this is my wrong way
I can't afford to pay today
I ruin my life , I choose a long stay
Alone because I fail
And I will fail whatever you say
I am like like winter
I am the ghost you see behind
I am the founder
I am the one who sets the price
And I will find you
And you will join me to my road
Why don't you hear me
"I want your life because I'm cold"
This soul, this dying soul
It's not too young, it seems too cold
Can you scream before the end
I am alive but I pretend
I can't forget
And I can't regret
Can't find a hole
Cant find a place to call my home
This is my lie, this is my birthday
I always steal the things of your pray
This is my lie, this is a long stay
I always celebrate
And I will replace you from the next day
Have you ever seen my face
Have you ever find me a space
Did you ever learn to be the fandom of wisdom
I'm not the ship in your trip
Have you ever fought for a reason
Or you say that's not good season
Is your mind and your soul in a prison for real
Have you rent a place
To live with your sorrowful mind
And your dreams
Are you dreaming a true live
look behind you there's a knife
It's the knife which turn my dreams into nightmares.
Look behind you and beware
Look my face and meet me there
Fight me the truth of the things that you told me
and go away tonight
Laws Of Deceit
Holds back Your desire for love
But let us Race to the stars
In the Garden of Eden There's a life for you
And a lie from you makes this vision hold true
Soldiers of sin
We only fight to win
Come and be my twin
Trust on these eyes
Come and take my advise
Share love before sunrise
Betrayal in your eyes
Spits a thousand lies
But in this war we are allies
Is like a lover with a gun
holds a burden in his hand
killing love on every dawn
The wind blows cold
And bitter is the world
Inner demons now unfold
How can we compete
As we feel complete
By the laws of deceit
Dont run Away, away from your pain
Cause lies will never explain
Erasing the past Time goes fast
Though remembering so much
There'a love profound
On this forbidden ground
And we shall murder all pleasure's sound
Years of fears
All these broken years
That noone can repair
Come, Shadows of shallow despair
May you fill the broken air
Speaks a thousand lies
Red Sunrise
Into my steady hands
An empty soul reloads
So give me back those guns
Before this heart explodes
Returning trigger from your hand
Strange feelings flert my self tonight
Pushing finger cannot stand
I'll turn this morning into night
For this Red Sunrise
I see you elevating to immense heights
I'll turn this fire into ice
There is no paradise
Only a world full of lies
There lies a nice disquise
And a fake advice
Final Win
It's the struggle time
Its my summer time, it seems
Awaits
It's the final time
In a final time who wins
Again
I couldn't say to you
Leave me , leave my summer time
Leave me , leave my piece of mind
In a struggle time
I could face your kind
I could turn your vain in me
But my hands are tied
And my soul is damned again
I couldn't say to me
Now I am alone at night
And before the dawn
My forgotten soul
It sleeps
When the Darkness comes again
and time seems to reach the End
Give me something to believe
Show me faith so I can be
When the Darkness falls apart
like corruptions painted art
Give me shelter or deny
Cause I wait to end my life
I'm going on a trip
Do you want to follow me
Do you want to share with me
Things I want to see
Come with me
And when the dark will fall again
You're not allowed to see the end
Maybe I'll pretend
Behind the Truth there lives a lie
Hiding pain inside my mind
Reveal these scars , Ill find the way
To reach the End to end the Day
I live with agony
Tonight I'll set you free
But now i must return
To my Eternity
How To Lose A Star
Pictures of loss
Pictures of anger
Dark burning candles
Black rising stars
Into my father's
Irrational plans
Inspiration
Called deception
Can you believe it??
That's my lust
Like a star hiding behind a rainbow
To this moment of no hesitation
I'm a son of a higher creation
You're the lord of my darkest temptation
You're the reason of my illumination
Im Home
Music:Dion/Dariusz S.
Its not the questions of your mind
Its not the truth
The truth is blind
Lead me
to the other side of life
Kill me
Before the dark you tonight
But Im not Alone
Im leaving the past
Im leaving on my own
And I dont belong
Before the Sun
Before a Storm
You are so true you are so strong
You pray for me , I write you a song
I wrote for truth, who's never told
Find the treasures of human kind
In me but theres nothing good to find
