Dakrya (band)
Dakrya is a theatrical metal band from Athens, Greece that was formed in late 2004 by Sophia Charalampous. The idea was to create a band that could develop a theatrical attitude and combine different musical elements with the dynamics of metal and rock sound. History Many rehearsals and line-up changes brought the first demo release for Dakrya in mid-2005 entitled ''Without Destination''. The singers Margina (female vocals) and Costas Lazarou (male vocals) participated as guest musicians for the recordings of the song. The reviews were good and soon Christina Kalantzi (vocals) and Thina Chat (vocals) joined the band as lead singers. Many live shows followed (mostly in Greece) as the band worked on new songs for their first full-length album to come. In 2007 Dakrya enters the studios to record their debut album entitled '' Monumento'' that was released on May 23, 2008 by Another Sphere Records (in France, Canada, Belgium) and 279 Productions (Greece & Cyprus). Monumento receiv ...
