Tales of Tragedy is the third full-length album released by Cypriot Power metal band Winter's Verge.
The harmonies and rhythms on the album are more complex and sophisticated than previous releases, with a darker atmosphere.
Classical influences have a high profile, with several songs employing orchestrations reminiscent of Romantic era classical composers and a bass solo on the penultimate track derived from the third movement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
Tales of Tragedy is a concept album, but not in the manner which tells a cohesive story.
