                                                    DO NOT RB.
                                               𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝖛𝖆𝖒𝖕𝖎𝖗𝖊 𝕷𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖙                                                         ( the band )
The movie Queen Of The Damned made Lestat and his band out to have a more Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, late 90s early 2000s industrial sound, AND I DO NOT AGREE WITH THAT. Lestat doesn’t confine himself to a set music gendre so it’s really hard for me to define the sound that The Vampire Lestat has in my head but fuck if I’m not going to try!
First off, 𝖈𝖍𝖊𝖈𝖐 𝖔𝖚𝖙 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖘 𝖛𝖔𝖎𝖈𝖊 𝖈𝖑𝖆𝖎𝖒 𝖋𝖔𝖗 𝕷𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖙 !  I’ve only heard two songs by this guy so I’m not sure how accurate his singing range is to Lestat’s, but right now he’s doing great sweatie.
𝖈𝖔𝖒𝖒𝖔𝖓 𝖘𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉𝖘. Lestat absolutely loves rock. The power, the passion, the rebellion. And the way music has evolved throughout his lifetime has been an absolutely mindblowing thing to witness-- but often Lestat finds his heart aching for the sounds he grew up with in 1700s France. So while many of his peers opt for more electric sounds, Lestat likes to keep his rococo roots alive by sprinkling pianos, harpsichords, violins, and cellos throughout his music. Nothing is more interesting than meshing a plucky harpsichord and an electric bass into the same song amirite! Its art, don’t worry about it.
𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖇𝖆𝖓𝖉. The Vampire Lestat: a band that seemed to bust out of nowhere in the ‘80s but quickly rose to stardom thanks to talent and a strange connection to the popular novel Interview With The Vampire. The band broke up in ‘93 after their domination of the music scene through the ‘80s, but every member has gone on to continue their music career in one way or another. All except for Dorian, that is.
It may be called The Vampire Lestat, but don’t be fooled by the name. TVL is nowhere near a solo act! He is accompanied by 3 other people on stage, all of which he has come to consider close friends. Now, I don’t know nor really care who he canonly was in the band with. I’m so weary of Anne’s work. So uhhh all the band members associated with my Lestat are all orginal NPCs.
                        𝕾𝖆𝖘𝖍𝖆 𝕽𝖆𝖒𝖔𝖓. LEAD BASSIST, BACKUP VOCALS. 23, latina trans woman. Big trad goth energies. Was the frontwoman for the band (originally titled Satan’s Night Out) before Lestat became the driving force behind it. In interviews she is often asked if being ‘kicked out’ of the vocalist position for the band bothers her, or if she’s jealous of Lestat, but she has always brushed it away. Frankly, singing in front of a crowd wasn’t really her thing. She only was the lead when she was because their last one quit, and was more than happy to let Lestat take the wheel so long as she still got to write some songs, too. After the band broke up in ‘93, Sasha and Albie got married and started a much more low-key music careers as their focus shifted from fame to domestic life.
                           𝕯𝖔𝖗𝖎𝖆𝖓 𝕿𝖍𝖔𝖒𝖆𝖘. LEAD GUITARIST, CELLIST. 20, cis man from liverpool. As post punk as it gets. Presumed to be ace by Lestat, but he never talked about his sexuality much. Was the newest member of the band until Lestat came around. Like his sexuality, not much is known about his background aside from the fact that he is technically in the country on an expired student visa. After the band broke up Dorian faded into obscurity without even his former bandmates knowing where he went off to. Some speculate he got into drugs, but Lestat thinks he might know better. He turned Dorian 92 on an intoxicating june night. Maybe it was because of pure desperation for a deep bond again, maybe it was just poor judgement. Either way, Dorian was damned, and he began to pull away from the trio he’d once been so close to. It was likely he fell victim to the aching melancholy that replaced what was once blood in your veins, or maybe he just wanted to close this chapter of his life already. Whatever it was, Lestat knows he’ll run into Dorian again.
            𝕬𝖑𝖇𝖎𝖊 𝕺𝖑𝖘𝖔𝖓. LEAD DRUMMER, VIOLINIST, BACKUP KEYBOARDIST. 22, just a dude from Austin, Minnesota who wanted to be apart of something bigger. Joth. Both Albie and Sasha started the band together (with Sasha’s then girlfriend, Ronnie) in their sophmore year of college shortly before they both dropped out to focus on their music full time. The three drove across the country playing small gigs. Wisconsin, through Illinois, Missouri (where Ronnie dumped Sasha and ditched without another word), Tennessee (where they picked up Dorian in Nashville), and onward their fortunes twisted up and down. The group was on the brink of calling it quits entirely when they finally met Lestat at an open mic in Florida. When the group broke up for real, Albie was more than happy to settle down with Sasha. Together they adopted his two nephews and wrote songs for kids shows like The Grim Adventures Of Billy And Mandy, Scooby Doo, Courage The Cowardly Dog, and more!
𝖜𝖔𝖜 I’m out of things to ramble about for now so uhhhh take some random songs that give me TVL vibes
Just change "Lola” to “Louis” and its Lestat’s ode to his fave sad boi
Im at a loss for words tbh I’m not even sure how to describe it. its just, Him
UNDER BLUE MOON I SAW YOU!!! SO SOON YOU’LL TAKE ME!!!!! This is a song abt The Hunt you can’t change my mind
This feels like something Lestat would write about his own turning
This song is just About Lestat. He feels personally attacked any time he hears it. Yes Sure this song was written for a movie but Lestat isn’t convinced Bowie ever got over their one night stand in ‘85
