Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows

Darkwave musical project based in Frankfurt, Germany. Founded in 1989 as a duo by [a=Anna-Varney Cantodea] (then just Varney Cantodea) and [a=Holger (2)] - under the name "Sopor Aeternus". Later other members joined the project, who later left. In 1992 Holger, after releasing 3 demo tapes together ("[m=335344]" (1991), "Rufus" (1992), and "Till Time And Times Are Done" (1992)), left Sopor Aeternus, and it became a solo project of Varney Cantodea, who is started using pseudonym Anna-Varney Cantodea since 1997. Sopor Aeternus means "eternal sleep" in Latin.
