1) The German rave band Dune. The band was founded in 1995 by Oliver Froning and Jens Oettrich, who are both big fans of the novels by Frank Herbert - hence the name Dune. Their first single "Hardcore Vibes" featured the voice of Oliver's then 11-year-old cousin Janine. Their second single "Are you ready to fly?" sounded quite different and already featured the typical Dune-style with high-pitched vocals and a catchy melody.
At the end of 1996 the band released the album "Forever" with a lot of tracks in a classical style - all tracks where performed together with the London Session Orchestra (see Dune & the London Session Orchestra). Lead singer Verena von Strenge left Dune after the release of "Forever" to start a solo career. Dune came back in April 1998 with a new lead singer (Vanessa Hörster). The single "Keep the Secret" was only a medium success and its successor "Electric Heaven" flopped completely.
In late 1999 Verena von Strenge came back as lead singer after her solo career was not as successful as she wanted it to be. The single "Dark Side of the Moon" was released and the album "Reunion" was produced and ready for release in May 2000. However the album was never released due to a court order that stopped the single "Heaven".
The latest single released was "Rainbow To The Stars 2003", a rework of their 1996 classic. It was released on 23 June 2003.
2) A Finnish demoscene tracker musician who adopted the more unique name Brothomstates in the latter half of the 1990s and was later signed to Warp Records.
3) Dune was also an Alias used by Drum & Bass Dj/Artist Ray Keith in the early 1990s.
4) An Indiana-based musician who recorded an album called "Road of Life" in 2000.
5) An Australian power/progressive metal band that is now disbanded. The band only recorded a demo called The Eleventh Hour.
8)Duo made of Laurent Garnier and Pascal F.E.O.S. (Pascal Dardoufas). Released one EP: The Alliance EP: Trance, Ambient style electronic.
9) Four friends from Athens, Ohio, finally came together to form DUNE in 2011. Influenced by their favorite acts (Sabbath, Kyuss, QOTSA, Sword, Truckfighters), DUNE's brand of stoner metal has various undertones--everything from soul to thrash. You can find them on Bandcamp.
10) The progressive sludge/stoner metal Dune formed in recent years in Edinburgh, Scotland. They recently released their first EP entitled 'Progenitor'. You can find them on bandcamp here:

80 Years
Dune Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause they are leaving
Across the border to smoothness and happiness
Swim, just swim
Hit in with all you got
Just swim and cross the shell that covers up your life
Would you die
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Oh, would you die (would you die)
Oh, would you die? (would you die)
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Children of Marx and McOdola
We are the children of a silenced time
We should repeat the Second World War
Just to point out that we got it right the first time
Oh, would you die (would you die)
Oh, would you die? (would you die)
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Oh, would you die (would you die)
Oh, would you die? (would you die)
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
We are growing up with too much love
Inside a shell - a living corpse
Inside our selves
We are a waste but have to save
The world where I too can see
The light when I shut my eyes
Responsibility
We have to take on for free
Oh, would you die?
Oh, would you die?
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Oh, Would you die
Oh, would you die?
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Would you die (would you die)
Oh, would you die? (would you die)
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?
Oh, would you die (would you die)
Oh, would you die? (would you die)
Oh, would you die in 80 years with me?

Children of Marx and McOdola
A reference to those who inspired them
We are the children of a silenced time
We come from a time of suppression
We should repeat the Second World War
We need to relive history to learn from it
Just to point out that we got it right the first time
To emphasize that we need to learn from the past
We are growing up with too much love
We are spoiled and don't understand the world's harsh realities
Inside a shell - a living corpse
We are trapped in our own ignorance
Inside our selves
It's all about our own personal growth
We are a waste but have to save
We are inadequate but still responsible for making things better
The world where I too can see
The world we envision for ourselves and others
The light when I shut my eyes
The hope and optimism we cling to
Responsibility
The duty we have to make the world a better place
We have to take on for free
We have to do this with no expectation of reward
