Diabolus - NEW SONG!

Diabolus had been a Thrash metal garage band for some years with constantly changing line up until January 2006, when Úlfur(Guitars), Gísli(Bass guitar) and Ragnar(Drums and percussions) met at Ragnar..s garage and started rehearsing Slayer songs and making thrash metal, as so often done before in the Icelandic metal scene. But within time, Diabolus..s music genre was to change quite rapidly. Ragnar had always been a blackmetal lover and the cousins (Úlfur and Gísli) started listening to heavier music such as Decapitated, Meshuggah, Spawn Of Possession, Necrophagist and more. When their love for death metal and Ragnar..s love of black metal was thrown together with their musical talents, something happened and their songs became way more powerful and brutal. In the summer of 2006 they started auditioning for a second guitarist. Many good and many bad guitarists turned up and when the three original members had almost given up hope to find a decend guitarist with the ability to play and come up with material as brutal as they were aiming at. Then Jóhannes turned up, and was hired almost instantly. They continued growing more technical and powerful and at fall, felt there was time to try out singers, for they wanted to be able to play some of their songs live. Needless to say, they only auditioned one singer, and told all the other singers waiting to give it a shot that they could forget about it, Egill Liljar was instantly hired! The band began playing live shows that were well taken by audience along with writing new and more powerful songs and drinking more beer. In the spring of 2007 Ragnar left the band because of musical diffrences and because he wanted to play more with his other band, Atrum, which he plays drums for today. Right away, Diabolus hired another excellent drummer and crazy death metalhead, Magnús, who is crazy. In the fall 2007, Diabolus and Jóhannes parted ways and Diabolus will continue on as a 4 piece until finding a second guitarist, stronger than ever!!
