“We are simply looking to take over the world, nothing else!“ says
Simon Sanchez when being asked what he wants to achieve with
his band “DARK DIAMONDS” in the future.
He takes a smoke and blows it into a white neon lamp which floods
the studio with bright light.
Being not only the drummer, but also the producer of the band, he
is absolutely serious about his statement. He keeps a straight face
as if he wanted to say: “What else?“
“I have been reflecting on the name for a long time,“ remembers Jens,
the vocalist of Dark Diamonds.
“I wanted it to represent the band’s idea and not just sound nice. Since
we all feel most comfortable in the darkness, it was easy to find the first
part of the name. We came up with Diamonds because they symbolize
strength, energy, infinity, indestructibility and assertiveness".
The Dark Diamonds' musical spectrum is so extensive that one is almost at
a loss for words to describe their sound. It would be too simple to classify
them as “Gothic” or “Dark Wave” as that would not cover the band’s sound.
Their favourite music in their iPods speaks for itself: bands and performers
such as E Nomine, Lacrimosa, Nina Hagen, Rammstein, Jean-Michel Jarre,
Diary of Dreams, Faith & The Muse, Beatles, Mötley Crüe, The Cycle,
Beyond The Maze, Dreadful Shadows, Type O Negative, lots of Techno and
Classical can be found there. Sometimes their music is romantic and
vulnerable, at other times it is tough and destructive. At still other times the
melody is clear and catchy - only to drift off into experimental and gloomy
sound patterns which end in romantic, epochal ballads that not only give
you goosebumps but also create an endless flow of pictures in your head.
Take a gloomy awareness of life, electronic sounds, tough guitars, a
charismatic manly and dominant voice, and pair it with gentle, vulnerable
singing, add thunderous drums and you will get a basic idea of the
Dark Diamonds’ music. “Close your eyes,” says Tyrae, “and imagine you
take the light and travel into the darkness by yourself. We have the
matching soundtrack for that.“
Simon Sanches nodds his head and presses “Play”. “Erblich“ resounds from
the speaker boxes, one of the outstanding tracks from the new album
"Das Gift".
“I don’t agree with people’s different behaviour patterns towards their
environment”, says Jens. Many people are simply not honest with
themselves. That’s what I want to express with this song. My songs are
like little poems that allow for your own interpretation. I don’t want to
force an opinion but simply give an impulse for dreams.”
