1) Diablo was born in the late 1990s in Finland. They recorded it´s first mini-album "Princess" catching a record deal with Poko Rekords. The first album Elegance in Black was released in 2000 and was described as a powerful punch in the face.
In 2002 after releasing the second album Renaissance, which went straight to number 14 on the Finnish Top 40, Diablo played gigs on several summer festivals. Most important of them was the internationally known Tuska-festival in Helsinki. The band also made a video of the album's opening track Angel. Diablo took a strong place in the Finnish metal music scene with these two albums.
The expectations for the third album increased to a high level when the release date got closer. The hype around the band was enormous. And just before the third album´s release, Finnish most popular music show "Levyraati" broadcasted their brand new video of the song Read My Scars, also released as a single (staying nine weeks on the single chart, topping at number three). The video got so much feedback that even the grannies knew the group after that!
"Diablo“ that hails in the names of Testament, Slayer and Death- released it's third album Eternium on the 19th of January 2004. It went straight to number 3 on the chart, staying for eight weeks on the Finnish Top 40. The band got awesome media interest. Most of the gigs were sold out and the forthcoming summer seems to be a busy time for the group. Diablo, Finland's brightest metal hope, is known as a super live act, capable of producing their enormous roar also on stage.
Their fourth album, Mimic47 was released 18.1.2006. Album went first on the chart directly.
Their fifth album, Icaros, was released 14.5.2008 under the label Sakara, debuting at #2 on the chart.

4) Notable for composing the songs from Budbrain’s first and second megademos.
5) One of the first metal bands from the Philippines, formed sometime in the early 70's and often regarded as forgotten godfathers of the metal genre. Formed by young occult fanatics Morrison Uchida and Eldritch Yokoyama, they released one known demo titled "Huling Sumpa" in 1975 and played a few shocking gigs before vanishing into obscurity. Some say that Morrison Uchida was arrested and sentenced to life in prison in 1981 or 1982 for killing three people and critically wounding eight others at a bar.

Diablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am no-one to judge you
who cannot read between their lies
Oh, I can't blame you
They're hiding into the shadows
of those words
Guiding you into the sea of lies
who is god of all this misery
I am no-one
I am no-one to take the
pain away from your soul
Wake up and open your eyes
They're hiding into the shadows
of those words
Guiding you into the sea of lies
Never telling you
who is god of all this misery
Wake up!
Faceless
You will hate yourself
Faceless
In the end of the line you will see
I am no-one
I am no-one to save you
But I still can't understand why
they have done this to you
They're hiding into the shadows
of those words
Guiding you into the sea of lies
Never telling you
who is god of all this misery
They're hiding into the shadows
of those words
Guiding you into the sea of lies
Never telling you
who is god of all this misery!!
Faceless!
The lyrics of Diablo’s song Faceless convey a strong message about the dangers of believing in lies, following blindly and being controlled by those who hide in the shadows. The singer starts by saying that they are no one to judge the listener, but emphasizes that they cannot read between the lies. There is a sense of empathy and understanding, as the singer acknowledges that they cannot blame the listener for being led astray. The “they” referred to in the song are the manipulators, the people who use words and lies to control and misguide, while being faceless.
The song calls for the listener to wake up and see the truth. The manipulators are guiding the listener into a sea of lies, never revealing themselves, and never telling the listener who is responsible for the misery they may be experiencing. The repetition of “never telling you who is god of all this misery” underscores the idea that these manipulators are in a position of power and control, but remain hidden.
Diablo’s Faceless is a powerful anthem that urges people to open their eyes, see through lies, and take control of their own lives. It speaks to the dangers of blindly following those who hide in the shadows and the need to face reality and take responsibility.
