Excellent news for all fans of classic gothic rock: French post-punk/gothic rock masters Soror Dolorosa present their stunning show from last year's edition of Prophecy Fest as a full-length concert video titled Back To The Cave.
Soror Dolorosa's mastermind, Andy Julia, comments: "We spent the summer of 2025 on the roads of Europe and ended our concert season at Prophecy Fest in the legendary Balve Cave. This show remains as one of our fondest memories when it comes to performing live. We're thrilled to be able share this concert with you. We had the pleasure of collaborating once again with Livja Pjetra, who previously directed the music videos for 'Apollo', 'That Run', 'The End', and, most recently, 'Tear It Up', which is the latest video clip for our current album, Mond. Frédéric Duarte, the director of the Rive-Gauche live show in 2014, has kindly operated one of the seven cameras that were used to capture this footage. The live performance represents the culmination of our evolution over the past few years. It brings together new tracks from Mond and new versions of songs from Aurora that were brought back to new life on stage. This edition of Prophecy Fest will remain etched in our memories forever, not at last thanks to the great talents of Livja and Frédéric, to whom we extent our most cordial gratitude – as well as to the wonderful festival team for their kind and relentless support. Vive la Prophecy Fest !"
