Release of the 3 cd FALLING DOWN COMPILATION featuring an unreleased DIRGE's track, THE COILING, recorded in May 2003 during the "And Shall The Sky Descend" session.
Dirge was born in Paris in 1994. The original core was formed by Marc T. (guitar, programming) and by Laurent P. (voice, programming). In the industrial-metal genre of bands like Godflesh or Pitch Shifter (debut), the music generated by the duet presents harsh guitar riffs, robotic rhythmes, aggressive frequenced samples and pitched voices. Three demo-tapes will be released during this first era : “Infected Brain Machine” (94), “Mind Time Control” (95) and “Dead Network Access” (96).
After the leaving of Laurent P., bass player David K. and guitarist Franck T. join the band. This first change in the line-up coincides with a noisier and less electronic curve ; around the torn-downed voice of Marc T., the music goes darker, tortured, dissonant. The first album “Down, Last Level” is released in 1998.
1999, Alain B. (drums) and Christophe [Zomb] D. (machines, percussions and voice) strengthen the band. Re-humanized with the renunciation of the drum machine, the music becomes much more heavy and stifling, guitars becoming the center of gravity of the second album “Blight And Vision Below A Faded Sun” (released in 2000 on the own band's label, Blight Records).
Replacing Franck T. and David K., Christian M. (bass) then Stéphane L. (guitar) join Dirge in 2001. Three years later, the third record “And Shall The Sky Descend” is released and introduces a more hypnotic aspect of the band's music. If heavy guitars stay in the center of the four long pieces that build “ASTSD”, the extremely slow-downed tempos, creeping samples, minimal parts, violin, didjeridoo and female vocals present the result of four years of musical evolution.
From 2004 to 2006, the band gives several concerts then goes back to studio in Switzerland in november 2006 to record its fourth album, the double CD set “Wings Of Lead Over Dormant Seas” released on september 2007.
2008 sees the recording of The Cure's “A Short Term Effect” for the Feardrop fanzine as well as the release of the unreleased track “The Coiling” for the “Falling Down Compilation”.
The band is currently working on its fifth album, whose recording should take shape during the second half of 2009.
