In 1994, Eve Evangel met Ashley Dayour and they started Sanguis et Cinis. Their first show went badly, and it wasn't until Richard Lederer joined them in 1995 for a show in Vienna that they clicked as a band. Together, they wrote and recorded a number of songs, including Schicksalswölfe and Gedankensplitter, which they put onto their first demo tape, Requiem 1791. In 1996, they released their first album, Schicksal, which garnered enough attention for them to be signed to MOS Records. Eve wanted some changes to the band's look, and added Celine Cecila Angel to the line-up. Arthur joined, and Ashley Dayour left to start another band. After the band recorded unfreiwillig abstrakt in 1997, Richard left to concentrate on his three other projects. Sanguis et Cinis continued as a trio with successful shows in Germany and Austria as well as tours in Mexico, South-Africa, Russia, the U.S.A, and Europe. In 2003, they were featured on the cover of the September issue of the German darkwave magazine Orkus They disbanded in 2007, and Eve Evangel went on to found the band Lolita KompleX.
