Tristitia is a Swedish doom metal act formed in 1992 by multi-instrumentalist Luis B. Galvez, who has remained the only constant member of the group. After two demos the band released their debut album One with Darkness in 1995.
The band's second album Crucidiction was released in 1996. It was the last to feature original vocalist Thomas Karlsson. The band's next album, The Last Grief, released in 2000, ended up being recorded with a session vocalist, Rickard Bengtsson, who did ultimately join the band.
For the fourth Tristitia album, Stefan Persson was introduced as the new vocalist. Bringing an exclusively growled vocal style to the group for the first time, Garden of Darkness, released in 2002, saw the group moving in a death-doom metal direction. To date, the album remains the most recent Tristitia release.
