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.
Peace Of Mind
DGM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This time it just won't be a fake
Don't look at me, don't judge me now
The words you said; I'm screaming out
Don't speak at me, don't bother me
The shortest straw has pulled out
Infernal thoughts burning my mind
Unleashed upon us all
My brain is cracking down in hate
What should I do is turn the page
I've lost control, I can't believe
The scent of you is killing me
For every step I'll take
There will be a bounds I have to break
I guess I'll be alone
All the things I do are wrong in this world for you
(just give me a peace of mind)
Stay by my side and we will rejoin as one
The lyrics to DGM's song "Peace of Mind" tell a tale of someone who has had enough of being judged and bothered by others. The singer declares that this time, they will do things their own way and will not put on a fake persona to please others. They are frustrated with the criticisms and negative words thrown at them, and they scream in response. They want to be left alone, but the consequences of their internal struggles affect everyone. The singer acknowledges that they have lost control, and the hatred is consuming them. They wish they could turn the page and start over, but the only way to move forward is to break the boundaries.
The desperate plea for peace of mind is showcased in the chorus where the singer expresses that everything they do is wrong in the world of judgment, and they crave someone to stand by their side and rejoin as one. The song's message is about the importance of staying true to oneself while battling the judgments of the world. It paints a relatable picture of the struggles one goes through while fighting the societal norms to pursue their own path. The lyrics are deep, introspective, and hit home for many listeners, making it a meaningful and powerful song.
