The music of Dimæon is all about serenity, symmetry and beauty, co-existing with entropy, misery and brutality. Each epic composition runs through its own distinct set of contrasting emotions, yet always saturated with melancholy. Influences range from 70’s progressive rock to death metal, from doom to jazz-fusion and back again.
 
Since April 2004 Dimæon played various gigs in the Netherlands, sharing the stage with bands like Andromeda (Swe), Ancient Rites (Bel), Epica (NL), Sun Caged (NL) and Autumn (NL). In the Dutch “Metal Battle” contest of 2005, Dimæon made it to the semi-finals after claiming victory in the quarter final. Opening the international “XO Prog” festival (2006) in Leeuwarden (NL) was another highlight in Dimæon’s live career.

Dimæon released the self-recorded demo “Echoes in a Dying World” in 2005. This effort, despite of the sub-par sound quality, already hinted at the direction the music would take. In October 2007 Dimæon released the “I, Mortal” EP. The two compositions that make up “I, Mortal” showcase an even more diverse spectrum of sounds than before, lyrically supporting the post-apocalyptic images the music evokes.

Currently, Dimæon is working on new material, the first two chapters of what will become a concept album already written. The first chapter, entitled “The Blood Of Millions” was played live a couple of times (e.g. during the support shows for the dutch female fronted metal bands Autumn and Epica), and proved to be an overwhelmingly brutal opener. The contrast with the second chapter is immense, making clear the music is going to be taken into the extremes even more than before…
