Flowing Tears started life as the rather lengthier ‘Flowing Tears and Withered Flowers’, forming in Saarbrucken, Germany in 1994.
It was important to Flowing Tears that they keep the band’s signature sound of deeper female vocals, rather than change their style to fit someone totally different.
‘Flowing Tears’ are a band who have changed and evolved over the last ten years, without losing their indefinable sound — they stand out from many of their contemporaries with their brand of guitar driven gothic metal and fantastic live performances — definitely a band on its way to greater success.

 .: Metal Storm - Flowing Tears - Razorbliss - review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Flowing Tears was from the start called Flowing Tears & Withered Flowers when they in 1996 released their debut album, “Swansongs”, and in 1998 their second release “Joy Parade” the last under that name and the first with the vocalist Stefanie Duchêne.
To replace her, Flowing Tears added the young Helen Vogt to the line-up and have now released the first album with her in vocals.
The good is that it have made Flowing Tears develop, it’s not good to play the same kind of music over and over again.

 Jung Society of Atlanta - Carl Jung, Plato, and Tiger Woods
I want to describe the painting: almost all of the canvas is taken up by the life size head and neck, in profile, of a weeping woman, tears flowing unstoppably out of her eyes, down her face, cheek and nose a watery pink.
Tears are messy: crying produces swollen eyelids, smeared mascara, pinkish snotty noses, splotchy complexion etc. The veil of tears clouds our vision: we can’t “really” see.
At times the one shedding the tears is healed, as was Mary Magdalene who washed Jesus’ feet with her tears.

 Flowing Tears - Satan Stole My Teddybear   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Flowing Tears is very much a surprise as this German four piece plays a relatively generic, commonplace style of heavy music yet still somehow comes across as very enjoyable and worth the time spent.
Now several albums deep into their career, Flowing Tears has come up with a sound that is reminscient of both The Gathering (from Nighttime Birds era) and Left Hand Solution.
In fact, Flowing Tears can probably be recommended as therapy for those who couldn't fathom the changes The Gathering on How to Measure a Planet as they retain the prerequiste heaviness that those fans seem have an insatiable desire.

I closed her eyes; and there flowed withal a mighty sorrow into my heart which was overflowing into tears; mine eyes at the same time, by the violent command of my mind, drank up their fountain wholly dry; and woe was me in such a strife!
For we thought it not fitting to solemnise that funeral with tearful lament, and groanings; for thereby do they for the most part express grief for the departed, as though unhappy, or altogether dead; whereas she was neither unhappy in her death, nor altogether dead.
And I gave way to the tears which I before restrained, to overflow as much as they desired; reposing my heart upon them; and if found rest in them, for it was in Thy ears not in those of man, who would have scornfully interpreted my weeping.

 Tearful Serenity: Crying Away the Stress
The ratio of salt to water in tears is typically similar to that of the rest of the body, so there is no net change in salt concentration; nonetheless, if the body's salt concentration climbs too high, it will take advantage of the tear solution and instill it with extra salt.
Tears also have antibodies that defend against pathogenic microbes, and enzymes which also contribute to destroying any bacteria the eye encounters(1), (4).
Tears, along with saliva, stomach acids and other secretions, are generally only produced when the body is in a state of quiescence or calm.

 Flowing Tears - Razorbliss - Century Media - CD
Not so far as to sound manly but nowhere in the arena of your typical female pop rock vocalists, it lends a smoky quality to the music not necessarily unfamiliar to FT fans; she sounds eerily similar to Duchene more often than not.
Flowing Tears shares this, among a number of other similarities (producer, sexy female vocalist, trend conscious photo sessions) with their label mates.
I really think Flowing Tears have the chops to break from the pack of gothic rock/metal wannabes for good but I think we’re going to have to wait for that break through release just a little bit longer.

German act Flowing Tears tried this time a heavier approach to the gothic feel of their music.
Flowing Tears' previous album Jade was a compelling album full of somber melodies highlighted by Stefanie Duchene's plaintive vocals.
After all, Flowing Tears is very much a surprise as this four-piece (formally a six-piece) plays a relatively generic, commonplace style of heavy gothic music yet still somehow comes across as very enjoyable and worth the time spent after a few spins.

Flowing Tears has often been described as a gothic metal band.
But Flowing Tears aren't afraid to stand out and be different, and Vogt -- much like Duchêne -- helps them accomplish that.
While Vogt is her own person, she isn't a radical departure from her predecessor -- and she is clearly an asset to Flowing Tears throughout this excellent album.

 Why Do Eyes Water?
If tears are flowing quickly, like when you're crying pretty hard, the ducts can't drain them all, so tears run down your face.
That's because some of the tears making their exit through the ducts end up coming out of your nose.
You might not think twice about your watering eyes, but some people do have trouble making tears because their tear glands are not producing enough tears.

Stripping down your line-up and working as a quartet instead of sextet is not really what most bands would dare to do – especially when it’s a band that you’d generally classify as gothic rock.
Whereas others tend to add more and more layers to the band’s fabric and sound, FLOWING TEARS have decided to do the opposite and not follow what’s set in stone in the bible of "How To Become A Model Goth Rock Band".
FLOWING TEARS are a lot more rocking and heavier than ever before, and at the same time leave more room for the unique voice of Stephanie Duchêne.

For the better part of their career, Germany’s Flowing Tears have been a work in progress.
However, unlike their female-fronted brethren, Flowing Tears don’t venture too far into gothic metal (Lacuna Coil) nor to they lose the listener in spacey jams (The Gathering).
Fans of any of the aforementioned bands will undoubtedly find merit in Flowing Tears while those that prefer the Nigthwish’s and The Sins Of Thy Beloved’s of the genre might see this as too delicate, which if you’re in the latter group, you’re about to miss out on one of the year’s best albums.

 music-reviewer.com - April, 2002 - Flowing Tears
Flowing Tears has the potential to become one of the bigger sensations in the Goth/Metal circle -- a radiant circle that's grown in leaps and bounds in recent years and become more receptive to the advent of female fronted vocals.
Flowing Tears is sad and enchanting on their new "Serpentine" release, melancholy and often moody, they impress with their tight arrangements and contemplative and captivating textures that like their name, flow softly and purposefully.
Having toured with the likes of The Gathering and My Dying Bride, they're less a handful than either of the two, opting for simply constructed odes to pain, pleasure, duress and longing.

One of the first highlights was their support-role for the Norwegian experimental gothic rockers The 3rd & The Mortal on their European tour in 1997 which enabled the band to experience life on the road just three years after their formation in 1994.
In 1999, the track 'Swallow' from the self-released EP with the same title filled people with enthousiasm about Flowing Tears' bittersweet gothic rock with the atypical dark voice of singer Stefanie, so that Rock Hard magazine included the song on their 'Unerhört!' covermount-CD.
Among various other gigs, Flowing Tears also opened up for their now-labelmates The Gathering.

 Get Ready to ROCK! Review of live concert/gig by My Dying Bride and Flowing Tears on 31 October at London Astoria
Sometimes when a band plays the UK for the first time, they receive a hero's welcome, like Nightwish did at the Mean Fiddler in August and then on other occasions, they are faced with a wall of indifference.
Sadly for little known German Goth-Metal act Flowing Tears, the latter was the case on this occasion.
While their music isn't a million miles away in style from that of their far more popular label mates at Century Media, Lacuna Coil, it is not nearly as well known amongst the London Metal audience.

 TWAS 394: Nightwish, Flowing Tears, Entwine, Kotipelto
Flowing Tears have neither the exaggerated gothic bent of Lacuna Coil nor the hard-rock exuberance of Lullacry, and they're not a fl-, death-, doom-, power- or speed-metal band, which leaves them, for me, in a weird and intriguing limbo between subgenres.
The definitive demonstration here might be "The Pit", which opens with a muttering synth riff somewhere between drum and bass and Jean Michel Jarre, only to bury it after twenty seconds and launch into deadpan metal churn, a six-piece band doing their best to sound like a power trio.
Most of the time, in fact, Entwine sound very much like Flowing Tears, the difference between Mika Tauriainen's male vocals and Duchêne's female ones discernible but not profoundly character-altering.

 BNR Metal Pages -- Flowing Tears   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
This German band, who released their first few releases under the longer name Flowing Tears And Withering Flowers, is one of the better bands currently operating under the gothic rock/metal banner.
Stylistically they might remind one of late-period The Gathering, though vocalist Stefanie Duchêne's rich, emotive vocals are not of the soprano variety, but a mid-range similar to Agnete Kirkevaag of Madder Mortem or Mariana Holmberg of Left Hand Solution.
The songs flow (no pun intended) nicely, expressing melancholy and sadness but never depressing or dreary.
