In 2010 DiM's debut album 'Secrets' was released. It was distributed worldwide under the well-known international label Metalblade Records. This album placed the band up in the highest position of the genre, receiving many awards, nominations and great reviews from the specialized medias.
Despite it being the first studio work for DiM, the production of 'Secrets' had a prestigious technical team, made up of greatest professionals such as Sascha Paeth or Ad Sluijter (ex Epica). Also, members of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, RTVE Orchestra, Spanish National Choir and the Ensemble 'Nova Lux', collaborated in the recording of 'Secrets'.
DiM has just recorded their second album, entitled 'The Wanderer', which is foreseen to be released in early 2012 under Napalm Records. It is a conceptual album, direct and really promising, where DiM is working again with great and well-known professionals such as Jacob Hansen, Stefan Heilemann or John Kelly & Maite Itoiz among others.
DiM has played many gigs so far. They have supported Manowar in their Spanish tour and Theatre of Tragedy in their farewell tour in Mexico. The band has also shared stage with bands like Arch Enemy, Cradle of Filth, Doro, Therion, Kreator, Rage, Saxon, Epica, Sabaton and many more.
After the great success achieved at the Metal Female Voices Fest (MFVF 8, Belgium) last year, DiM was booked to play again at the MFVF 9, this time as co-headliners. In that occasion, the band had the opportunity to release their very first videoclip and single 'Sceneries of Hope' (The Wanderer), in front of more than 4000 people. The video was also included in the official Metal Female Voices Fest DVD.
It is worth highlighting the welcome that DiM received among their fans. Only a year after the release of Secrets, four fanclubs have been created: ‘Secret Club’ (Costa Rica), ‘The Seventh Gate’ (Mexico), ‘Diabulus in Reinaissance’ (Southamerica) and ‘Los Secretos del Diablo’ (Spain).
Crimson Gale
Diabulus In Musica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are the light of love alive
The heat that warms their lives
The wall against all danger you are
Protected by your sense
And never willing to bow your head
You had to make your way
Fight for yourself without regret
Show your pride never hide
Don't disgrace your precious gift
Never hide, show your pride
You are much more than you can see
She defied their beliefs
Uncovering wounds to heal her own fears
She learnt to grow alone
She raised her voice and broke her old roles
She taught us to survive
She blazed our path in hostile lands
She freed our power within
To believe we will always win
Nobody will turn our thoughts away
Blow all prejudice with your fiercest wind
Though it was not an easy way
Alis volat propiis
United we stand
United we can
Together on course it's all ours to take
We're ready to defend
All chances that await
They can't rob us of the rights we cherish
Fight
You won't see us cry
Fight
Our hope will never die
We lost a battle but we'll win the war
Nobody will turn our thoughts away
Blow all prejudice with your fiercest wind
Though it was not an easy way
Alis volat propiis
United we stand
United we can
Together on course it's all ours to take
We're ready to defend
All chances that await
They can't rob us of the rights we cherish
