Widow's Weeds is the 1st full-length album by the Norwegian Gothic metal band Tristania.
Tristania is a Norwegian gothic metal band, formed in 1996 by Morten Veland, Einar Moen and Kenneth Olsson. Tristania's music is usually classified as Gothic metal with death influences, due to its strong tie and legacy within the gothic metal history. Their songs largely deal with dark and sentimental topics, including depression, sadness, suicide, love, absence, and anger.
The band had not had any known activity since 2016, until October 2018, when they announced that they will return "to the scene for the first time since 2016 at 70000tons of Metal in early 2019."
