Welcome to the Official Tomb of the ever so nocturnal, Dark Rites. These European blooded, Tacoma Vampires, bring you the sound that you hear, which is like no other. Thomas, with his love for Gothic, Melodic, Cold, Doom, Metal, formed Dark Rites in 2007. Thomas adds his wife Kimmi later on. They put forth, into their songs, all the trials and tribulations, following Thomas' death experience and both of their pain, loss of loved ones, and just about everything you can imagine. Some say that if you listen closely, you can hear the pain, suffering, sorrow, betrayal, deceit, confusion, bloodshed, vampiric love, the fact of being alone, utter nothingness, and pure darkness. Thank you to those of you who have stuck by Dark Rites. The tracks "The Dark Trail" and "A Cold Night In Hell" was composed and written by Thomas.

Thomas: Vocals, Lyrics, Guitars, Bass, Keyboards, Synths,
