In 1994 the first demo "Oblivion" was released. The next year they released their first CD "Pale Awakening" for a German label. Several concerts, many contributions to various compilations and reviews in several music magazines helped the band to become known to the dark romantic music lovers.
Diego spent three years on a long musical research work. After that, durin 1997, the Italian label Eibon Records printed the band's second CD titled "Fragments of Memories".
In the year 1998 Diego co-founded a side project with Arianna called Static Movement. The musical style of Static Movement is not so different from the Frozen Autumn, but in this case only electronic instruments are used. The result was a more synthetic coldwave sound. The partnership proved fruitful for both parties and so Arianna became a permanent fixture in The Frozen Autumn line-up, Static Movement remaining their "concept research project".
Merletto has been working on his video art since 2003, which has become an integral part of the band's live shows.

Painted Girls
The Frozen Autumn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In your mind.
I saw my years
I saw my tears, freezing,
A fairy lamp lit up my face... as a gentle breeze.
Just another pearly moon through the weeping fog,
Takes away the orchids from my bed!
Where the colours slidedown on my back!
I heards speak painted girls,
They believe in another life,
It's strange to say, but from that moment
My days are not the same!
The lyrics of The Frozen Autumn's song Painted Girls describe a dreamy, surreal world where colors fade away, leaving behind frozen tears and memories of the past. The first lines, "Fadin' colors in your eyes... In your mind," suggest a sense of loss and fading beauty, while the image of tears freezing evokes a feeling of cold and loneliness. However, the mood changes as a fairy lamp lights up the singer's face and a gentle breeze blows, creating a sense of magic and wonder.
The chorus brings a contrast to this idyllic scene, with the image of a "pearly moon through the weeping fog" and the loss of orchids from the singer's bed. The world outside is described as "ordinary," but the singer's experience of it is colored by a sense of melancholy and detachment. The colors of the world "slidedown" on the singer's back, suggesting a feeling of being overwhelmed by external stimuli.
The final verse of the song introduces the concept of "painted girls," who believe in another life. The singer has overheard their conversation, and their words have had a profound effect on them. The lyrics suggest that this encounter has changed the singer's perspective on life, and that their days are no longer the same. The reference to "painted girls" is intriguing, as it suggests a world of artifice and performance, and raises questions about the nature of reality.

Fadin' colours in your eyes...
The colors in your eyes are fading away.
In your mind.
It's all in your head.
I saw my years
I saw the years of my life.
I saw my tears, freezing,
I saw my tears freeze in the cold.
A fairy lamp lit up my face... as a gentle breeze.
My face was illuminated by a gentle breeze like a fairy lamp.
Just another pearly moon through the weeping fog,
The moon shines through the fog.
Takes away the orchids from my bed!
The orchids from my bed are taken away by the moon.
Ordinary season of a standing world,
It's just an average season in a stationary world.
Where the colours slidedown on my back!
The colors flow down my back.
I heards speak painted girls,
I heard the painted girls speak.
They believe in another life,
They believe in a different life.
It's strange to say, but from that moment
It's strange to say, but from that moment on
My days are not the same!
My days are different now.
