Dies Irae - lyrics

Led by single-named guitarist/vocalist Mauser, Dies Irae has produced some of the hardest hitting sounds in Eastern Europe. Although he disbanded the original lineup featuring guitarist China, ba**ist Czarny, and drummer Gilan, to join a similar group, Vader, in 1997, Mauser has picked things up a notch since reorganizing Dies Irae with new musicians in 2000. Introducing the new lineup with a self-financed album, Immolated, produced by Lukasz Szurminski, Mauser, and Dies Irae entertained several contract offers before signing with Los Angeles-based Metal Blade. Their first new album for the label, Lion of Knowledge, released in November 2000, was followed by Sin War in 2002.br /br /All members of the reconstituted Dies Irae continue to perform with other groups. Novy is a member of Behemoth and Devilyn, while Hiro is a member of Sceptic. Mauser and Doc continue to play with Sceptic. ~ Craig Harris, All Music Guide show less
