Forest Stream is a symphonic black / doom / Gothic metal band formed in Chernogolovka, Russia in 1995. The band draws inspiration from long and harsh Russian winters. Stylistically, the band's epic sound combines the atmosphere of the British doom metal of the 1990s and of the Norwegian black metal. The band's lyrics revolve around the themes of sorrow and hopelessness. Their first album, "Tears of Mortal Solitude" was released in early 2003 and was warmly received by the critics. In May 2007, the band has gone on their first international tour in Ukraine. In September 2007, the band was signed by Candlelight Records. [cite web
