Ocultus formed in Barcelona, though not much else is known about their beginnings. The band's name means 'hidden' in Latin, which fits with their preference for keeping things obscure.
Their song 'Lágrimas Negras' became their most recognized work. It's a melancholic track with a haunting melody that caught attention when it was released.
The band members used theatrical stage names like The Shadow, The Serpent, The Oracle, and The Spirit. Their live shows often featured dark atmospherics with smoke and moody lighting.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
