Background and influence
Tristania stood apart from the other bands of the genre with their use of three distinct vocal styles in the "operatic soprano Vibeke Stene, clean-singing counter-tenor Østen Bergøy, and harsh, black metal-style shrieker Morten Veland".[7] Beyond the Veil made use of a ten-member choir and featured violin passages from Pete Johansen of The Sins of Thy Beloved,[8] earning "rave reviews" across Europe.[7] By then, the band had risen to "the top of the gothic metal heap"[9] with their "lush, symphonically enhanced" approach.[7] The album features "tender ethereal female voices" and "the brutality and harshness", making it a promoter on the gothic metal scene.[10] They were "dealt a potentially crippling blow" when singer, guitarist and principal composer Veland left the group to form Sirenia.[7] Tristania has continued to prosper with subsequent releases[11] and has since been "regarded as one of the world's premiere goth metal bands".[7]
