About

Dagoba, French industrial and death metal from Marseille, since 1997.

10 vinyl records including limited edition and transparent red LPs; rare 2024 pressing at 20€.

Dagoba emerged from the Marseille metal scene in the late 1990s, combining influences from neo-metal bands with industrial and death metal. Early demos laid the groundwork for a rising profile in underground metal, culminating in a consistent output of albums on labels like Verycords, Season of Mist, and Sony Music. Their sound features double kick drums and downtuned guitars that emphasize heaviness and groove.

Vinyl collectors can find various pressings including the 2017 'Black Nova' LP on Sony Music, the 'By Night' limited edition LP from 2022 released by Napalm Records, and a 2024 limited edition transparent red vinyl pressing of 'Different Breed' on Verycords.
