The Shroud is a five-piece gothic rock band with neo-pagan leanings. The band formed in Samhain in 1991, with the original lineup composed of Lydia Fortner's all-female death rock band, The Shroudettes. The Shroud have since been featured in many underground magazines, such as Carpe Noctem, Outburn, and Ghastly in the US, Blurred Victorian Child in the UK, Marble Moon in Italy, and The Scarecrow in France. The band's videos appear in New York's Propaganda Videozine compilation, Volume 2.
