V roce 1996 dva bývalí členové Uzi Suicide, Morten Veland a Einar Moen spolu s Kennethem Olssonem založili kapelu Tristania. Krátce před natočením dema v roce 1997 se skupina rozrostla o další členy: Vibeke Stene, Anderse Hidle a Rune Osterhuse....

Píseň: Tender Trip on Earth

Interpret:
Tristania
Album:
World of Glass
Another day - The next page 
Still in daze - Still in a dream 
Out of the pipe - My lust for life 
Comes and goes 
From above 
Demanding purity - Sobriety 
Cursing me like a sledge 
Hammering down at me 


Out of the waterpipe 
I suck my lust for life 
And all my floating dreams 


It seems 
Up on the gallery 
God shouting down at me 
Something I can not hear 


Tears falling from the sky 
Words from a lullaby 
Everything beautiful dies 
For now, we're hanging in 
Though we are blessed with sin 
You make my tired heart sing 


You can be a sunbeam 
And shine for a while 
For a while 
You can laugh a lot 
And bring out that smile 


For now we're hanging in 
Even though we're blessed with sin 
You make my heart … 
You make my tired heart sing 


Tears falling from the sky … 


I'm on a tender trip 
Slowly I'm losing grip 
Madness is in the air I fear 
Stay, you're my acid-queen 
Stay on my faded team 
Run through the corridor with me
