Biography:

The German band Diary of Dreams, whose style could be described as gothic/darkwave, was formed in 1989 by Adrian Hates and Alistair Kane. The results of their co-operation were visible yet in 1994 when their first album “Cholymelan” was released. Two years later the duet returned with the album “End of Flowers”, which was released by the label Accession Records, whose owner was Adrian Hates himself.
In 1997 the album “Bird Without Wings' was out and the band's popularity and acknowledgment among the increasing number of fans was growing instantly. The year 1998 witnessed the release of the album “Psychoma?”; at the same time Diary of Dreams accepted two new members : Olaf Schaning and Christian Berghoff . “Moments of Bloom” - the best-of compilation and tat the same time the first album released domestically in the US was out in 1999. One year later the album “One of 18 Angels” joined the band's rich output and two years later, the fans could enjoy the album “Freak Perfume” and the EP “Panic Manifesto”. The albums released in the following years, namely: “Dream Collector” (2003), “Nigredo” (2004), “Menschfeind” and “Alive” (2005) proved the mastery of the band's music and strengthened their position on the darkwave scene. The band's tracks also featured many compilations.Time wasn’t standing still, years were passing by, partly Diary of Dreams was changing their personnel members, but even for a moment has it weaken the good creative and editorial form of the frontman, Adrian Hates, and the cooperating musicians. Confirmation of these words are titles of the next releases: MCD‘’The Plague’’ , ‘’Nekrolog 43’’ (2007), (if) and MCD ‘’King of Nowhere’’ (2009). About every two years time Diary of Dreams serves us a new position in their discography, and so it’s going to be this time as we already know that in first months of the year 2011 the next, hopefully promising well, DoD’s child, an album with a mysterious title ‘’Ego:X’’.
Diary of Dreams concerts are specific disposals of charisma and art of enchanting the audience; they are always spectacular and extremely poignant. Output of the group, whose role in darkwave/gothic music is unquestionable, combines the music virtuosity with enigmatic, often poetic lyrics and constitutes a real rarity for the fans of the genre.
