 There is more than one band/artist with this name:1. dEUS are an alternative/experimental rock band based in Antwerp, Belgium, with different line-ups, but always including singer and guitarist Tom Barman and Klaas Janszoons playing the violin and keyboard. Many musicians became well-known after having been members of dEUS: Stef-Kamil Carlens (Moondog Jr., Zita Swoon), Rudy Trouvé (Kiss My Jazz), Danny Mommens (Vive la Fête), Craig Ward (The Love Substitutes), Jules de Borgher and Tim Vanhamel (Millionaire, solo). The current line-up (as from the album Pocket Revolution) includes Mauro Pawlowski (who became famous as solo artist and before with the band Evil Superstars) on guitars and vocals, Alan Gevaert on bass and Stephane Misseghers on drums. Erik Drew Feldman and David Bottrill have acted as producers. dEUS, whose songs are primarily sung in English, performed their first concert on November 20th, 1989. The band displayed a bewildering array of influences, including Captain Beefheart, Mingus-styled jazz, J.J. Cale, Leonard Cohen and Velvet Underground. Consequently, they incorporate a wide variety of styles into their work. dEUS have become one of the most successful (and influential) Belgian rock bands. dEUS has made 6 studio albums up to now: Worst Case Scenario (1994), In A Bar, Under The Sea (1996), The Ideal Crash (1999) Pocket Revolution (2005) Vantage Point (April 21st 2008) Keep You Close (September 20st 2011) Other releases include: My Sister = My Clock (1995) and No More Loud Music - The Singles (2001), a best-of compilation. Before Pocket Revolution (2005), dEUS took a "sabbatical" for over 6 years. In these years, Barman was busy with his second passion: film. He wrote and directed Anyway The Wind Blows, a movie received well by critics in Belgium. The key-song of the soundtrack for the film was Summer's Here by Magnus, a project by Tom Barman together with CJ Bolland. More info can be found on their official website, www.deus.be 2. Deus is also the artist name of a person from Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) that released various free tracks on the website Jamendo.
