18 years of music history.
The Dithyrambs FORMED in 1989 in the formation bass, guitar/vocals, keyboard, drums. The early influences, which TO THE PRESENT DAY are still significant to the band, "came primarily" from the psychedelic era, the most energetic Rock of the 60's/70's and TRASH METAL, at the time very popular.
Their songs are self-composed; written by Andrea Pacini and arranged by the band in a collaborative effort.
The two band members of the initial formation are Andrea Pacini (guitar/vocals) and Francesco Biagianti (drums). The remaining line-up was subject to miscellaneous changes, therefore we leave it at a short, chronological abstract:
DEPARTURE of the first keyboard player - 3-PIECE line-up - ARRIVAL of a new keyboard player - DEPARTURE of the new keyboard player - 3-PIECE line-up - ARRIVAL of a second guitar player - DEPARTURE of the second guitar player - 3-PIECE line-up - DEPARTURE of the bass player - SEARCH for a new practice ROOM - ARRIVAL of a new bass and a new second guitar player - DEPARTURE of both - ARRIVAL of a new bass player - 3-PIECE line-up - DEPARTURE of the new bass player - ARRIVAL of the CURRENT bass player Daniele Mencarelli - 3-PIECE line-up.
In parallel with the personel changes the band had to strive against impacts that did not depend on the musician"s'" goodwill (notice of practice ROOM and lots of other unpleasant events of all kinds), too. To the supporters' cost, THE CONSEQUENCE WAS several overlong breaks of the otherwise stage-obsessed band.
After the first demos, RECORDED in the time between 1989 and 1993, started spreading (which got a fantastic REVIEW in Italy (H/M, this magazine sadly no longer exists), in Germany (Iron Pages, Underground Empire) and in numerous fanzines) and thanks to their attendance at several festivals and contests (Rock Contest, Anagrumba), the band managed to pass on the region of their hometown Montepupulciano early and gave NUMEROUS concerts in Central Italy, such as
Exaffa Club Perugia, Topsy Pub Livorno, youth center Pistoia, youth center Florenz „La Jungla“, Regional Party of Unity at Camp Bisenzio Firenze, Provincial Party of Unity Siena, youth center „Fuori Binario“ Pesaro, concert in the University of Urbino, youth center „Intifada von Empoli“ and so on ...
Due to the permanent changes of the line-up and the long breaks, the band unfortunatly lost those important contacts with organizers, that had taken them years to get.
But the main reason they WERE KEPT away from festivals and taverns was the musical trend in Italy. In those days music was dominated by genres like Etno, Folk, Reggae and Ska.
The Dithyrambs play anything but that and they don..t want their taste to be bent over: Aggressive Rock, sung in English language and still being soaked with psychedelic traits.
The ARRIVAL of Daniele Mencarelli in the fall of 2000 and finally an own practice studio led to the desiderated stability after all.
In THE summer of 2001 the in-house production of their first (promotionAL) CD "Dithyrambs 2001" and ongoing concerts on a regular basis followed.
Their second CD "Free To Be Filthy" was released ON A self-distributed LABEL in januar 2007. The freshLY mixed and freshLY mastered version of "Free To Be Filthy" is their first release on a label (release date 15 June 2007).
A small tour through Middle Europe is planned for autumn 2007, ALSO a new edition of a rework of their first CD "Dithyrambs 2001" for the end of the year.
These days the band is working on new songs. Unfortunatly we..ll have to wait for that album until next year.
