About Dies Irae
DIES IRAE was formed in 1992 as very young death metal band featured China (guitar), Mauser (guitar and vocals), Czarny (bass) and Gilan (drums). 1994 marked the recording of their debut demo titled "Fear of God" and released by Serenades records two years later. Debut demo comprised typical death metal tracks and guitar's variations as introductions. Their early recordings were heavily inspired and influenced by VADER and MORBID ANGEL. 1997 Mauser joined to VADER and DIES IRAE split up. Four years later Mauser sign contract with Massive Management, whose artist roster consists of such bands as VADER, SCEPTIC, DECAPITATED and many others, and looking for new members to his band. With help of Doc (VADER), Novy (Devilyn) and Hiro (SCEPTIC) the band prepare material for full debut album.
On 5 June 2000 DIES IRAE entered the Selani Studio to record their debut album. Titled "Immolated", it was produced by Szymon Czech, and graphically designed by Jacek Wisniewski, who had been previously responsible for several Vader's cover artworks ("Kingdom," "Black to the Blind," " Live In Japan"). "Immolated" was mastered at Studio 333 by Bart³omiej KuŸniak who is responsible for VADER's masters. All lyrics are written by £ukasz Szurmiñski, his new words will be featured on the new upcoming "Reign Forever World" VADER.
Following the promotional mailing of "Immolated" the band received a number of contract offers from such labels from Europe and the States. Finally, DIES IRAE sign four albums contract with premiere worldly label Metal Blade, which representative the band in the world except Poland and Japan. In Poland they are under Metal Mind flag, in Japan they are representative by Avalon/Marquee Inc. Both labels manage also VADER. The debut album is scheduled for the November 2000 release, and its promo campaign will be backed up with a video-clip for the "Lion of Knowledge" track. The album itself comprises 9 cuts, including two cyber-industrial intros performed by Doc. DIES IRAE are also preparing for their first January's European tour with NILE.
On April/ May 2002 the band entered Hertz Studio to record their second full lenght album "The Sin War". The album contains more complex and diverse songs, with huge impact of all band's members into the final result, especially excellent ideas of Jacek Hiro. The band was forced to postpone autumn tour due to VADER's obligations.
On July 2003 DIES IRAE for the first time appeared on the stage! "Empire Invasion Tour 2004" along with bands like HATE, LOST SOUL and ESQARIAL proved that DIES IRAE is even more powerful on live. The deal with Metal Blade was terminated and shortly after the band signed a new deal with MMP, including new album and DVD releases.
