Finnish has also appeared in the spoken intro to two songs "Schakal" on Inferno and "The Turning Point" on Elodia and on a bonus track in a limited edition release of Fassade called Vankina. Their lyrics are mainly about loneliness, sadness, darkness, despair, and love. The band has sold more than 20, copies of each album in Germany, but has also gained a large fanbase in Russia, Mexico and China.
Lacrimosa's first album, Angst , is slow and minimal music, dominated by keyboards and voice. This early period explores fear, helplessness, loneliness, non-existence, unattainability, the illusionary nature of love, and death. The same themes can be found on the next three albums, Einsamkeit , Satura , and Inferno.
