Tristania is a band from Norway, formed in 1996 by Morten Veland, Einar Moen and Kenneth Olsson. Tristania's music is usually classified as symphonic gothic metal with doom/death metal influences (especially on the early albums), due to its strong ties with the goth metal's history. The band name could be a reference to Norwegian trist, which means "sad" or "depressing"; and/or the tristania flower.
