Love Is Colder Than Death is a neo-medieval / neoclassical darkwave band from Leipzig, Germany, founded in 1990. The band's music is characterized by its extensive use of both romantic and classical styled male and female vocals. They have been one of the cornerstones of Hyperium Records' Heavenly Voices compilation series of the early 1990s. Originally formed by Ralf Donis, Maik Hartung, Sven Mertens, and Susann Heinrich, the band members and music have changed slightly.
