Soror Dolorosa is a gothic rock / post-punk band formed in 2001. The group was founded in Toulouse, France with Andy Julia (Peste Noire, Darvulia, Nuit Noire, ex-Mütiilation, ex-Celestia, Fornication) on drums, Franck (ex-Funeraell) on guitar, Herve (ex-Funeraell) on bass, and Christophe Guenot (ex-Funeraell) on vocals. The band recorded an unpublished demo, then the line-up changed in 2003 with the arrival of Emey (ex-Contrast, Unscarred), who replaced Franck on guitar.
