And of course standing center stage is the enigmatic star Tilo Wolff, and high above him on an unreachable pedistal is his equal, the angelic soprano Anne Nurmi.
Wolff himself, as both an actor AND a pop baritone, possesses the same enticing traits found on any modern-day bloodsucker: seductive, cursed, and alone in the world; a freak of nature.
However, in Act II of "Fassade," Wolff and Nurmi do spend a night together, as indicated by the simplified heavy metal guitar riffs of "Liebesspiel;" not only is this song the ONLY DUO between the two partners, but the rhythyms here exude the album's climax; erotic, sleazy and combustable.

 dweeb metal review - Lacrimosa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-20)
Some of the arrangements are without vocals, some are with Tilo and/or Anne, and some are with a choir, and in all these cases they are fairly accessible and very beautiful, often mesmerizingly so.
It is almost entirely in German, except for one song in English - Tilo sticks almost entirely to a clean, smooth, warm, passionate style with very little extreme vox, though he can still get pretty aggressive and menacing at times.
Tilo Wolff is the male singer and mastermind behind this band as well as the label they are on, Hall of Sermon, which also features such excellent bands as Dreams of Sanity, Artrosis, The Gallery, and they will release Evergrey in much of Europe.

 The Metal Crypt - Reviews
Cover artwork has been one of the keypoints for Lacrimosa's success, besides the fact that Tilo Wolff continues to demonstrate that he is one of the best composers in any musical genre.
Also despite the critiques, Tilo has a unique voice that combined with the German lyrics makes Lacrimosa a listening experience of its own.
All in all along with Tilo’s vocals each track is a world of its own with its separate identity, but also a part of the "Fassade"’s totality.

Tilo has a somewhat unusual voice and a very marked German accent, many people find Tilo's voice unsuitable, I find it an interesting fit for this kind of music.
As mentioned, Wolff's voice is unusual, they sing in German and the music is not always beautiful, as say Therion.
Wolff, as both a singer and an actor, displays a greater emotional diversity here than in "Fassade" or "Echos;" he proves he can be violent and forceful yet also frightened and vulnerable.

In 1990, the German musician, 17 years old,Tilo Wolff (that has main focus in the vocal and compositions) decided that he should give more life to his poems and histories, and he made it through the music.

 Lacrimosa Interview on Dark Oath Issue 6
His first try at grounding a band was to write lyrics together with a friend and later make songs out of them, but shortly after they ended up in a small battle and separated without composing anything ready together.
As Tilo was getting older and gathered more experience, the music was also developing with him.
Nowadays the music has been getting quite varied like the whole surrounding system, we are into many thing at the same time but nowadays we see the light at the end of the tunnel and can take many things in a different way than what we did in the earlier days.

 PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY STEPHANIE SOLLOW
The whole arrangement is appealing, being mainly piano and strings behind Wolff's voice.
While not the case on "One Night," in general Tilo Wolff's voice does have some getting used to in the lower ranges, where it's deep and a little creepy (he does have a fairly wide range, though).
On the other hand, it seems wholly appropriate and works quite well — it contrasts the romantic "hero" with the dangerous "beast." His arrangements on these pieces are tremendous, each being glittering gems.

Tilo Wolff (vocals/piano, etc.) is the main songwriter of the music - combining and intertwining romantic classical with gothic-tinged rock.
It seems the couple (played by Tilo & Anne, respectively) has relocated to a new environment, one dominated by conformity and uniformity - where everyone is programmed to think and live in a certain way.
Both Tilo and Anne are at their best vocally, and the lyrics are much better translated than on any other album I think.

Bandleaders Tilo Wolff and Anne Nurmi began working on Fassade in January 2000 – immediately after completing the tour for Elodia.
The composing process for the multitude of diverse parts took almost a year, and in January 2001, Wolff and Nurmi began the actual recordings, splitting time between studios in Berlin and Hamburg.
The time was needed to fully realize Wolff’s and Nurmi’s vision of an "infernal symphony," a colorful mix of musicians from backgrounds as diverse as opera, classical, metal, rock and even jazz.
