About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

A Mesmerizing Collision of Old School Goth Rock and Heavy Club influenced Groove forged in the Torrent of Misadventure and Heartache.
The music of Bitter Grace is a deep, dark descent, riddled with a fierce array of haunting melodies, Soulful electronics, heavy guitars, and floor-pounding beats.
Together with soul-rending vocals that drip with equal amounts of passion and rage; and heart wrenching lyrics that will inevitably lead you back into that place which we all have come to fear.
These key elements have kept Bitter Grace on the cutting-edge of the dark sound movement since 1985 and have established them as one of the top "hard-liners" of the New York City Dark music scene.
Bitter Grace is Passionate music that will move you with beautiful effect.
Bitter Grace has shared the stage with many renowned artists, including Genitorturers, Sunshine Blind, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, Gene Loves Jezebel, Voltaire, Mors Syphilitica, Bella Morte, Empire Hideous, cut.rate.box, Cruxshadows and other international stars.
Bitter Grace appears on Delinquent Records' compilations "The Pink And The Black", as well as "More Black Than Black" featuring nationally recognized artists. The band has performed at various venues throughout the Northeast and nationally, including well-known festivals such as Danse Macabre II (Boston) and Endless Nights (New Orleans).
