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).
The Wanderer
Diabulus In Musica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Far from the paths that were so familiar to my old compass
Far away beneath the dark meadows of the sky
And my way starts to fade
And I wander, I drift, I lost my way
I didn't own yesterday, but tonight is mine
Tomorrow or yesterday? Choice is in my hand, the future's mine
Far away from hatred and pain
Far away, no chance to return
Far away there's no ground to place
My soul, my heart again
I'm the girl from nowhere
But I'm free
Will you be there if I close my eyes, I need your presence as a guide
You're the savior I need to escape my sacrife
Far away from hatred and pain
Far away, no chance to return
Far away there's no ground to place
My soul, my heart again
I'm the girl from nowhere.
I'm the land
The Wanderer by Diabulus In Musica describes the journey of a protagonist far from her past life, seeking a new beginning. The opening lines set the tone of the song as one of a journey that the singer is about to embark on, leaving behind her familiar life and the people in it. The reference to an old compass being unable to help her indicates that the singer is breaking free from the constraints of her past life and is ready to explore new paths free from the limitations of her original compass. Her path starts to fade, and as a result, she wanders, drifts and loses her way.
In the chorus, the singer expresses her excitement and hope for the future. She is free to make her own future and chooses to embrace it instead of holding onto her past. The lines "far away from hatred and pain" depict the singer's desire to avoid emotions from her past life and start anew. She declares herself a girl from nowhere, indicating that she is stepping out of her comfort zone and embracing the unknown.
The singer's dependence on a savior to guide her is evident in the closing lines of the chorus. She wishes for someone to be there as a guide, taking her through the journey of life as she wanders. The Wanderer is a beautifully crafted song that navigates the theme of exploring the unknown.

Muito boa a banda, a música nem se fala.
Exquisite Splendor
It's such a shame that DIM is so underrated. Everyone talks about Floor, and Simone's vocals, but Zuberoa's vocals are unique, and beautiful in a way that no one compares, and their music has it's own unique voice in symphonic metal.
