DIMENTIANON Revamp Lineup; Live Chaos To Ensue

NYC-based extreme metal unit DIMENTIANON, after a slight break from public appearance, have recently revamped the band's lineup and are again booking live appearances for the coming months.

The first confirmed DIMENTIANON appearance for 2011 will see them taking part in a brutal Saturday night show at Brooklyn's deafening The Acheron alongside a collective of other tri-state-based underground metal outfits including Horrifier, Sacrificial Blood, Cain and Brohammer on February 26th [view flyer]. More live actions will be announced in the coming months.

The turbulent, trademark DIMENTIANON style of combining death, black and doom metal elements with eerie atmospherics has been a part of the New York underground scene since the mid '90s (then known as The Forgotten), but really sank its teeth into the public's ears in 2010, with the release of the band's third full-length Collapse The Void. The short but potent release shows the band at their most creative and destructive peak yet, inciting incredible reactions from the underground metal media, and shows the band tackling new approaches to their own "dementia" within the supposed realms of extreme metal.

"This is one of the sharpest underground metal albums released so far this year, a task that is an accomplishment in itself considering the enormous size of the scene. 4/5" - Metal Underground

"... just the right splatterings of melody, atmosphere and groove. There isn't a track on the release that doesn't mesh with the rest as each passage is well thought out and fine-tuned. 8/10" - Blistering

"Being unpredictable in a black/death unit is a little rare these days and sure there are bands out there within the genre that can lay claims to being unique but few sound as cohesive as Dimentianon do on Collapse The Void.... this is a must have situation... 9.5/10" - Wormwood Chronicles

"The surprising contrast between the (already strong) early material and this new, melodic/prog black metal sound shows an impressive amount of growth and ambition." - Teeth of the Divine

"Collapse the Void is all over the map from start to finish mixing elements of black, death and doom metal with ease, creating a nice chaotic extreme metal mix." - Popdose

DIMENTIANON's Third Album To See Release On Paragon Records This October

Paragon Records will unleash the third album from DIMENTIANON, New York’s masters of chaotic metal, on October 19th, 2010. Entitled Collapse The Void, the album epitomizes the turbulent mixture of black, death and doom metal that has become the band's trademark style.

DIMENTIANON have been a force in New York City's extreme metal scene since their formation in 1995, the band then known as The Forgotten. With countless regional concerts under their belts, and backed with a solid resume of releases including the band's fist two full-lengths, multiple demos and a split release with funeral doom merchants Rigor Sardonicous, the DIMENTIANON of 2010 is by far the most powerful expression of the band's chaotic nature to date. Founding member vocalist Mike Zanchelli has led the unit through many lineup changes, currently rounded out by returning bassist Maureen Murphy, drummer Pete Christopher and guitarist Zoltan Valter (Sectioned).

Collapse The Void was recorded and produced by producer Pete Rutcho (Revocation, Graveheart, Frozen, Ravage) and features five massive tracks;, the shortest being just over three minutes, yet with the two longer tracks running closer to nine minutes. A maniacal yet well-orchestrated display of crushing haunting black/death metal with plenty of unexpected twists throughout, the album will surely arouse interest in any diehard fan of underground extreme metal.

Collapse The Void track listing:

1. Return...

2. Breathe Deep

3. Fragmented Nostalgia

4. The Forgotten

5. All Good Things End

Stay tuned for more news on DIMENTIANON activities to be posted throughout the year and well into 2011. View the cover art for the new album, live footage of the band opening for Marduk and more at this location.

Dimentianon- It Never Ends

Dimentianon was created in January of 2002. The lineup included two founding members of The Forgotten .. vocalist, M and M. Weisbaum on drums. In addition to The Forgotten members J. Mroz (bass), G. Dominus (guitar), and J. Fogarazzo (of Rigor Sardonicous) (guitar). Their goal was to create a unique mixture of chaotic Black/Death,and Doom.

They started to work on material, and in the summer of 2002, put out a three-song rehearsal promo for their new album. This was strictly limited to 1,000 copies and sold out in weeks. Throughout the year, the band played high-profile shows with such acts as Arch Enemy, Enslaved, Hate Eternal, Incantation, Kreator, Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus.

During this time, M. Weisbaum decided to part ways with the band to pursue other interests but not before he helped the band finish recording Seven Suicides, which was released through Paragon Records on September 23, 2003. After much searching the band acquired new drummer R. Bohlman(Embracing Carpathian Mourning), whose debut show with the band was opening for Arch Enemy in August 2003.

After the 3rd full length cd Hossanas Novus Ordo Seclurum and split cd with Rigor Sardonicous came out, J. Fogarazzo (guitar) left the band to pursue other interests and keep on full time with Rigor Sardonicous. Some months later J. Mroz [bass] followed and played one last show with the band as his farewell show. The next day after the show R. Bohlman [drums] decided to leave. The live promo just released is the actual last live show with both Ryan and Jim. It also features 2 new tracks that will be on the next full length.

All three former members have already been re-pleaced. Salty Z. who is an ex-member of Frost from Hungary and is in a death metal band that he formed called Sectioned which also features M [Dimentianon] on vocals now handles the second guitar duties. Salty Z. plays on the live promo just released and it was his second live show with the band. Maureen Murphy who played bass with the band for quite awhile some years back and played on the bands first cd L'Aldila when they were still called The Forgotten returned on bass . And the line-up is rounded out with Pete Christopher on drums.

The band at this time would like to thank joe, jim, and ryan for the hard work they put into the band. It a was great ride [for the most part Golem]. Best of luck with your future endeavors. The Dawn still continues to approach as the pact has yet to be broken.

AND REMEMBER ALL GOOD THINGS END....
