Eldritch (band)
Eldritch is a progressive metal band formed in 1991 in Italy. History Their history began when Eugene Simone, Adriano Dal Canto, and Terence Holler formed a band with the intent of putting out some demos. Right after the lineup was complete and the demos started to spread over the scene, the interest towards the band began to grow until Limp Schoor, in 1993 accepted to be their manager. In 1995 the band put out the debut album ''Seeds of Rage'' for Inside Out Music label. The album had good success, winning an award as Album of the Month on the German magazine ''Heavy, oder was!?''. Two years later, in 1997, the band proceeded to follow the same flow in terms of musical ideals, to the point where they published ''Headquake'', having success again, and at the time the Organization of the Gods of Metal Festival was convinced to include them in the bill. 1998 was the year of a change in style. With the publishing of El Nino the band followed influences such as Metallica, Coroner ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eldritch (video Game)
''Eldritch'' is a 2013 first-person shooter video game developed by David Pittman and published by American indie studio Minor Key Games. It was inspired by the writings of H. P. Lovecraft and gameplay elements of roguelike games. The expansion ''Eldritch: Mountains of Madness'' was released in December 2013. The game's source code was released in 2014, though the content itself remains proprietary. Gameplay Players take the role of a 1920s-era investigator in a Cthulhu Mythos-inspired storyline. Players can wield both pistols and spells. The world is procedurally generated, which means that it is different every time the game is played. The game features a form of permanent death in which all items are lost upon death. Money that has been stored in the bank is retained. After the player wins the game, a new difficulty mode is unlocked, "New Game Plus". Enemies become stronger, helpful items become rarer, and gameplay shifts to a more stealth game-inspired mechanic.

Andrew Eldritch
Andrew Eldritch (born Andrew William Harvey Taylor, 15 May 1959) is an English singer, songwriter and musician. He is the lead vocalist and only remaining original member of the Sisters of Mercy, a band that emerged from the British post-punk scene, transformed into a gothic rock band, and, in later years, flirted with hard rock. Formerly a drummer, Eldritch also programs the tracks for the Sisters of Mercy's drum machine (known as "Doktor Avalanche") and plays guitars and keyboards in its studio recordings but uses live shows to focus solely on his vocal performance. Eldritch is well known for his deep and melancholic bass-baritone singing voice as well as his poetic (and sometimes politically charged) lyrics. The Sisters of Mercy is regarded as a major influence on gothic rock, and Eldritch, with his (former) shock of black hair, bass-baritone vocal style and pale and thin look (with prominent cheekbones), was described in the media as a poster boy for the genre, earning him ...

Palmer Eldritch
''The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch'' is a 1964 science fiction novel by American writer Philip K. Dick. It was nominated for the Nebula Award for Best Novel in 1965.
