Dionysus was born in the basement of the Furst family home. Steve on drums, Dan on guitar. Many a migraine headache was inflicted upon our bewildered parents! We also tortured our neighbors by periodically giving "shows" in the grand concert stage of our garage. We moved to california in the spring of 1987 and after Steve graduated college in 1991..we started to get serious about our basement project and find some players who could add their talents to the growing body of songs that had been written. Up until then we had just been playing house parties and school shows with a roatating line up of friends and local musicians. When we finally settled upon a stable line up with Steve on drums, brandon on Bass, myself on guitar and Phil on vocals...I decided to move to england for 8 months. I forgot to mention it to the others...ooops. Things fell apart in my absence but on the upside, I purchased a cheap acoustic guitar in London and in the privacy of my dormroom and the inspiration of Europe around me...began to write the songs that ended up on the Dionysus cd. After returning home in the Spring of '92, Steve and I recuited Dave Hollyburton on bass and Jason Crowley on vocals. Both needed much work to get to the level that Steve and I were at but eventually we got there and started to play private parties and clubs. After lots of gigs, a series of demo tapes and positive local reviews, Dave was replaced by Shawn Mulkins, a graduate of such local thrash bands as Circle of Fear and Last Rites. Shortly afterwards, Jason was replaced by Kurt Wolf. Kurt was finally the vocalist who could deliver not only the voice...but the stage presence and show as well. With this line up, the band went into Suspect Studios in the summer of '95 and recorded for many months. Mixing was done in the idyllic hillside of Canyon Studios.... where disaster was nearly averted by a hungry DAT player. Finally, Gates of Eternity was mixed by Tom Carr at Music Annex and released to positive reviews. Dionysus played a cd release party at On Broadway in San Francisco and went on to support Gates of Eternity by opening shows for the likes of Machine Head and Vicious Rumors as well as many headlining shows. By early 1998, with the rock scene nearly extinct in Frisco and grunge all the rage..Dionysus called it a day. This website is for the music and for our brother Shawn who was killed in a car accident in 2002.
5. Formed 1998 in United Kingdom (Glasgow, Scotland). The band is still active.
Dionysus, A 5 Piece metal band from Glasgow with influences from a wide range of styles including black / melodic / death / doom and power and fantasy inspired lyrics. After numerous line-up changes the band are now in the process of writing and recording their 3rd full album.
"Glasgow six-piece Dionysus method of playing 'black metal' manages to be almost equal measure bathory bludgeon and power metal widdle and still sounds cool. Uncharacteristically down to earth - for their genre rather than geographical origins, in Glasgow - Dionysus confess to loving cheese but without heartfelt shame. Thoroughly enjoyable headbang-worthy stuff."
6. Rap artist from United States (RICHMOND, Virginia)
7. Neo-Classical metal from Korea formed in 1989. They have released 2 full-lenght albums.
8. Dionysus is project of Scott Ludlow
9. Dionysus (A.K.A Mellow) is Rock / Ambient / Jam Band from UK.
Dionysus are a 5 piece flash rock jam band from Bristol, England. They use all kinds of strange implements and things to create their strange slightly tribal sound. Us live at their first ever gig, doing a really bad cover of Breed by Nirvana. (they didn't have a bassist then)

10. Dionysus is a Death/Doom metal band from Lahore, Pakistan. They have released a single on internet named Peace with Greed. And also a rough recording of a neofolk instrumental Glimpse of the beloved.
The End
Dionysus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then somehow I'd see
Why everything's wrong
Or maybe it's just me
Does anybody know this place that I'm in
Why I might be alone
Imagination is a terrible thing
What if I'm wrong
It must be the end of the world
What ever happened to the rock and roll song
Breaking your brain
Making you stronger
They say you never hear the bullet that kills
And I don't hear a sound
It's not about a change or revolution
What's gone today is still called substitution
Don't get emotional but we're out of time
The melody's gone
And fools have got the sunshine
If I'm mistaken and I see you again
Don't leave me alone
Maybe tomorrow
Could be the end of the world
Don't make wishes
Don't waste time
Call the ones you hate
You'd say I'm sorry but they'll have to wait
For the end of the world
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
In "The End," Dionysus ponders over the state of the world and his role in it. He begins by expressing a desire to understand why everything seems wrong, alluding to a feeling of being out of place. This realization causes him to question the power of imagination, wondering if his perception of the world's end is unfounded. Nonetheless, he still believes that the world may be coming to a close, citing the disappearance of traditional rock and roll and the prevalence of foolishness in society. He contemplates the possibilities of meeting those he's lost again, and pleads for release from loneliness.
The lyrics of "The End" reflect on the state of society, utilizing a rock and roll aesthetic to criticize the lack of depth in contemporary culture. The chorus appears to highlight the bleakness and finality of the situation with phrases resolving into a repetition of "bye bye," suggesting a detachment from emotions and the acceptance of the end. The song's exploration of desperation, loneliness, and acceptance ultimately makes it a call to action that encourages listeners to reflect on the possible consequences of their actions.
Line by Line Meaning
If I could sleep at night
If I could find peace and rest in my mind
Then somehow I'd see
Then maybe I could understand better
Why everything's wrong
Why things aren't going as they should
Or maybe it's just me
Or maybe the problem is within myself
Does anybody know this place that I'm in
Does anyone else feel the same way as I do?
Why I might be alone
Why I might feel isolated
Imagination is a terrible thing
Thinking too much can be harmful
What if I'm wrong
What if my perception is incorrect
But here's what I've been thinking
But here's what has been bothering me
It must be the end of the world
It feels like everything is falling apart
What ever happened to the rock and roll song
What happened to the spirit and energy of music
Breaking your brain
Challenging your mind
Making you stronger
Making you more resilient
They say you never hear the bullet that kills
Death can come without warning
And I don't hear a sound
I can't seem to perceive the dangers around me
It's not about a change or revolution
It's not about making grand gestures or movements
What's gone today is still called substitution
What we have now is a poor replacement for what used to be
Don't get emotional but we're out of time
Don't panic, but time is running out
The melody's gone
The beauty and harmony of life is fading away
And fools have got the sunshine
Those who don't deserve it, seem to have all the luck
If I'm mistaken and I see you again
If I'm wrong, but I encounter you again
Don't leave me alone
Don't abandon me in this difficult time
Maybe tomorrow
Perhaps things will get better in the future
Could be the end of the world
The end of everything we know and cherish
Don't make wishes
Don't waste time on wishing for things that won't happen
Don't waste time
Don't spend your life on unimportant things
Call the ones you hate
Make amends with those you don't have good relationships with
You'd say I'm sorry but they'll have to wait
You may feel regret, but it's not a priority right now
For the end of the world
The end of everything is coming
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
Farewell, goodbye
