Behind The Making of Second Album



The world may forget us, but we're here we sang so we are not forgotten ..

The main concept in the upcoming second album. Day of Atonement "(DOA), ed. Trying to give new nuances in the music. "Here we not only want to appear different from previous albums, but also try to provide new reflesing for goth bands placed us".

The theme, still surrounding the death. Death itself began as a DOA - "DAY OF ATONEMENT" is itself an expression / symbol of death. Understandably Day of Atonement "has the meaning (English), day of death. Today death is the most sacred day that ever existed in human history. Today is the day of death there, and will occur. Do not care who you are, where you are, or what your religion. For them, death is identical with the return humans to the gods. DOA is the background theme to form a band with a name that is quite thrilling. "we despise death, but here we try to show that death is a sure thing and soon to come!" Y-sin-added lead of DOA.



That's where we try to make the concept of music which not only impressed fierce (in the name) but has a value of about life, the struggle is also about remembering that our bodies will disappear one day. What is called eternal life does not exist, but that does not mean we do not believe, with a piece of music, we can make the impossible was able to attend and be a pride for the dream creatures. Through music, we can become immortal. Through music we can tell stories not delivered. Through music we also exists and is eternal.



DEAD MAN Whisper to a single track album-2 which glide at the end of 2009 was made DOA has a new imagination, new concepts, new dreams. We want to give to the audience, especially lovers of metal music that we have been born with big dreams. Music on this one based on the tragedy that is happening around us. The world may have been commotion with the terror of suicide bombs, the heinous murder, natural disasters, war. Droplets of blood dripping everywhere. And there, this music emerged.
