Their best material can be found on their later albums "Wings of Time (1999), "Dreamland" (2001) and "Hidden Place" (2003). All three feature excellent melodic progressive-metal, great musicianship, walls of keyboards and some powerful and catchy vocals from Titta Tani. It is still too early to comment on their latest cd "Misplaced" (2004), as it had just been released at the time this bio was written.
Aggressive, melodic and progressive, DGM is a fun progressive-metal band with a pleasant neo-classical flavor. Their material will certainly appeal to fans of Dream Theater, Symphony X and Vanden Plas.
Close To You
DGM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Facing the enemies, facing all their fears
I'm feeling bad, I'm feeling good
I'm going deeper in the abyss just
To see your eyes
Please give me the light
Please show me the way
Don't be sad, don't be cold
I'm just so close to you
Keep it warm, keep it safe
Open your arms
Together we'll live side by side
Watching the rising sun, what a perfect shape
Surrounding all of us, showing our fears
Breaking these walls of silence built for you and me
I want to stay with you shaking like a leaf
Please give me a sign Please show me the prize
It's time to stay
(I feel so happy now)
It's time to go
I'm just so close to you
Keep it warm, keep it safe
Open your arms together well live side by side
