About Diabolus Incarnate

The response and positive feedback, both locally and internationally, came as a big surprise when Diabolus Incarnate was a solo project in 2010.

Fuelled by the overwhelming interest a full band was created in 2012.

Diabolus Incarnate is a Black Metal band from Johannesburg, South Africa.

With well written songs, influenced by past and present life experiences, and energetic stage presence Diabolus Incarnate gives listeners a view of what the band sees is Extreme Metal. With fast drums, shredding guitars and dark orchestral symphonies adding to the mix of being heavy but at the same time melodic.

The band consists of
Dieter Engel - Lead guitar and vocals
Sven Madlener – Drums
Dylan Delport - Rhythm guitar and backing vocals
Wesley Van Diggelen - Bass and backing vocals.

All members have been active in the South African music scene for years playing live shows in different bands.

Diabolus Incarnate strives to be one of the most dominating Black Metal band South Africa has to offer and maybe even the world.
