Clouds of Sadness

At the beginning, Alex played keyboard and guitar, then, the band split into two entities: Clouds of Sadness (with keyboard) and Lipuria (with two guitars). "Vampire", one of the first song (if not the first) was both played by Clouds of Sadness and Lipuria, on the first Clouds of Sadness demo, the Lipuria version of this song has been added as a ghost track. This song is the only one recorded by Lipuria as they use to split in late 1998 a few months after Éric Heuschen left both bands. Soon after Gloom integrated Clouds of Sadness, a story-album with a short story written by Gloom was planned to be recorded. After his departure from the band, he took back his concept first for a project called "Unveiled hypocrisies", then the short story became a novel (still unfinished) and Unveiled hypocrisies' music has been abandoned.
