Lichtgestalt is a 2005 album by German gothic rock duo Lacrimosa. The album was released on May 2, 2005 by Hall of Sermon. Recorded in 2005, it consists of 9 tracks, including the two different versions of The Party Is Over. The album has strong elements of symphonic metal. The album continues in the musical vein of Lacrimosa's previous albums, in contrast to Tilo Wolff's other musical project, Snakeskin. The style changes between calm songs with string instruments and aggressive electric guitar tracks. Lyrics cover Lacrimosa's by-now standard themes of love, estrangement and loneliness. A notable exception is the last individual track, Hohelied der Liebe, a song written entirely for orchestra and choir with rock elements, and with lyrics taken from St Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians.
