PLEASE NOTE Lineups 3-5 include current members as of July 2024 - PLEASE DO NOT REVEAL THEIR IDENTITIES HERE. We will remove any posts or comments that do so. If you want to share/discuss possibilities, please message the mods. Since we have established that there’s no-one left from the original lineup we are comfortable with posting those names. If they signed NDAs, this might be the only way they get publicly recognised for their work in getting this band off the ground. At this point it isn't entirely clear whether Lamia III and Abrahel IV might be stand-ins, so we will treat them and their immediate predecessors all as being current for now i.e. we will not post their names.
Moving on...
There have been many changes in lineup for this band. In fact, by my count we have seen ELEVEN different women play the roles of Lilith, Lamia, Nixe and Abrahel. Below I recreate the history of the performing (music videos and promotional material) 'members' of the band as best I can. I welcome thoughts and corrections. I’m not including screencaps for individual band members as this is already quite long but if anyone would like to challenge any of the below I can ‘show my working’.
The "tl;dr" is that there have only been two vocalists (not three), but there have also been two of everyone else as well i.e. no-one is left from the original 2021 lineup. The album was recorded with the current (masked) Lilith and the current Lamia during 2022, probably using at least drum and bass laid down by the original lineup.
OK. The first sighting of the band was Spring 2021 when the various social media accounts and the YouTube received their first upload on behalf of the band. The Instagram account dates way back to 2016 (thanks to r/oscarveli21 for spotting that), but it's been renamed twice so I suspect it was taken over or was owned by someone affiliated with the band but used for some other purpose until 2021. The YouTube account wasn't created until Spring 2021 although weirdly there's an old video from an unrelated band of the same name so I think this too must have been an account that was taken over from someone else and not fully scrubbed (seems like a weird oversight but hey). Even the website officialdogma.com wasn't registered until December 2020 (see whois).
No music was forthcoming until 9 months after the creation of the YT channel (and six years after that Insta account!) , on 10 March 2022 with the Father I Have Sinned video, but our first sighting of the original lineup was actually on Facebook on 1 June 2021:
Lineup #1 (promo pic from here):
Lilith (vocals) - Isa Roddy (Brazil/sometimes Germany)
