After a few years of building up a new band they made a significant addition. Violinist and keyboard player Casper became a new member and gave a definitive and clear direction of style to the outfit. The band was named Dominia and the style formed itself to a fusion of different influences. These where especially gothic metal and classical music. The combination of diverse elements did not become a mechanical combination of styles, but a character thatto this day defines the music of Dominia.
Besides working with the band, which now also included Papa, a former street fighter, on drums, did the individual skills of Rosa and Casper develop in other areas. Rosa graduated as an actor from St.Petersburg's Academy of theatrical art. Casper finished his classes at the Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatoire.
The growing interest in Dominia in the metal clubs of St.Petersburg was accelerated by Casper joining forces with a second violinist, the experienced musician Kat. They both played at that time in the symphony orchestra of the State Capella of St.Petersburg. Kat joined Dominia after a split up with a previous metal band.
Konsta Byleev of the metal management agency Big Brother Entertainment met Dominia at a live venue. He liked their specific style and he liked the band members. They started their cooperation. At this time in the fall of 2004 did Dominias style go through a change from an alternative โdoom metalโ mode to a more melodic, but rough and heavy music.
The first recordings of Dominia where done in Oulu, in northern Finland in August 2005. The two-track cds was released in November 2005 by UHO Production in Finland. Dominia signed with UHO for future cooperation.
In February of 2006 Dominia started to record their debut album at the Sound Supreme studio in Hรคmeenlinna. Produced by Janne Saksa the forthcoming album, named โDivine Revolutionโ, was recorded during February-June. The album release is in mid-September of 2006.It will be preceded by a cds with two tracks from the album: โThe Darkness of Bright Lifeโ and โWith Pain into Eternityโ and an additional bonus track โCellar Doorโ.
Inside of me
Dominia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It feels like nails being pushed into my ears
... sharing wisdom? I do not need it
Swallow your pride. No excuse after the final defeat
I'm sick and tired of it
I'm sick. I can not find the name of the trick
To step out of my body
It is I
You look through my window
And the sun keep shining
It is I!
Demons sleep inside
Deep in my heart
The Darkness is growing
Inside of me
It seems he's silent. Times are bleak
The light fades away
And every time I fall asleep
This is where it ends up, the time when I no longer care
The song "Inside of Me" by Dominia is a deep reflection of the inner struggles one faces with their own demons. The lyrics suggest that the singer is tired of dealing with their internal turmoil and is unable to find a solution to escape their own body or to silence the voice inside their head. Despite the demons that sleep deep in the singer's heart and the growing darkness, the sun continues to shine through their window. The overall message is that the singer feels trapped and unable to escape the torment that lives within them.
The lyrics are cryptic and leave much to the listener's own interpretation. However, it is clear that the song deals with themes of mental health, inner turmoil, and the search for inner peace. The lyrics "what do you want from me?" suggest that the singer is pleading with their own thoughts, seeking a respite from their inner demons. The line "demons sleep inside" highlights the idea that the singer is struggling with something internal that is causing them pain.
