On Thorns I Lay is a Greek death-doom metal band founded in Athens in 1992. They started as a death metal band under the name of Paralysis. Together with bands such as Rotting Christ, Septic Flesh, Necromantia, and Nightfall they started to spread their name in the local and global underground scene. In 1993 they changed their name to Phlebotomy and released the EP Dawn Of Grief. The next year they recorded the Voluptuous demo which drew the attention of Holy Records label. In 1994, they again changed their name to 'On Thorns I Lay' in reference to Shakespeare. (The name was suggested by their friend, Nightfall's vocalist/bassist Efthimis Karadimas) and released their first album Sounds of Beautiful Experience, which was closer to the death/doom style. Through the years the band's music evolved to include gothic metal elements. More information...
