Devil in Dorian kicked off in April 2016, after a few years stint under another name. Ren Byers, Klee Jane, Dan Freeman and Steve Jones all met over expensively perfect coffee and a Jack Daniels, with the aim of creating a grittier, dirtier, muddier sound.

With (probably) the largest collection of eyeliner, reptiles and hair dye known to man, typical emotional chapters of general life were forced into scratchy grooves, and not being able to solve all world problems instead lead to scribbling it all into a few notebooks, which eventually turned into music.

Lyrically, this is all about showcasing the darker side...revealing the darker truths...storytelling with some attitude...whilst enjoying a satisfying bit of headbang whiplash the day after the night before.

DiD released their first single, "Don't Waste My Time" in 2016.
