Garden of Delight Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

There are at least two artists with this name: 1) Garden Of Delight is a gothic rock band Founded in 1991, Artaud proclaimed that G.O.D. would produce seven albums in seven years with seven songs each -- seven is a very powerful number and, in some arcane traditions, seven thrice is the number of perfection. The corpus of The Garden of Delight cannot be viewed as individual albums or songs -- they are all integral aspects of the whole plan that Artaud has been consistently explicating since the first years of this decade. In the 1994 song "Necromanteion (S.O.C.R.)," Artaud utters "The Last of the Lost Ones/Tell them I want to see them." On their most recent album "Scheoul," he declares "We are the Last of the Lost Ones." Six years and six albums later, the circle approaches completion. Musically, there can be little doubt that Artaud is influenced by Carl McCoy in both subject matter and vocal style. G.O.D. retain the fundamental structure of "a man and his drum machine." However, Artaud sneers at the notion that the Garden of Delight is a "goth" band. Considering goth, one immediately thinks of bands that are influenced by the Sisters of Mercy. Granted, there is a certain degree of such within the Garden of Delight's work (particularly Symbol and Vision). However, this does not take into account the incredible diversity of their music. Indeed, while all of their albums have had thematic consistency, their music has changed greatly through the years. The Garden of Delight never seem content with a particular "sound." They will adopt one, master it, synthesize it with something else, and then move on. To firmly label the Garden of Delight would imply musical stagnation, which is quite far from the truth.
