Over the years, DIMMA has released six studio albums, including their self-titled debut in 2005 and the 2021 album *Þögn*, earning critical acclaim and topping the Icelandic album charts with their intense, melancholic yet energetic metal style.

The band’s music is characterized by robust guitars, thunderous drumming, and soaring vocals, blending hard rock and heavy metal elements with a distinct Icelandic flavor. They have also gained recognition for their dynamic live performances, including collaborations with a 70-piece orchestra and choir, which helped them win the national People’s Choice Award for Performers of the Year in 2016. DIMMA continues to push the boundaries of metal music while maintaining a strong connection to their Icelandic roots, making them a standout presence in the Nordic metal scene.
