Its music is the fusion between symphonic and melodic orchestrations and heavy powerful riffs molded out as a background of the concept story “New ERA”.

In 2004 the band signed an agreement with Steelheart/Adrenaline Records (Milan-Italy) and recorded the debut album “New Era (Part I)” in February/March 2005.

This marked the beginning of a new era in the story of the band. The debut album sold a lot of copies all around the world, especially in Japan Korea, Canada and USA.

By now too, New Era pt. 1 is very requested all around the world.

At the end of 2006, after a self promotion on Myspace (really close to 205.000 “friends/fans” at themoment), Derdian were contacted by the American label Magna Carta (Portnoy, Billy Sheean, Jordan Rudess, Steve Morse) that proposed an agreement for two albums to the band. Derdian signed this agreement and the new album: New Era (Part II) - War of the Gods - came out in august in USA and In September 2007 in Europe.

In march 2010 the band released its third album “New Era (Part III) - The Apocalypse” which marked the maturity of its musical way with many arrangements and orchestrations.

Since 2010 to 2012 Derdian was involved in more matters: writing new songs, able to mark a further step in the composition process of band (for the first time the band wanted to write lyrics out of any concept, about the modern life and the actual problems of the world), the separation from the

historical singer Joe Caggianelli because of some musical divergences and of the band’s will to reach new vocal horizons and, last but not least, the experiment of self production too: for the first time in its history, Derdian began the recordings of “Limbo”(November 2011) without the support of a label and without a singer.

Finally on May 2012 the new singer Ivan Giannini reached the band and immediately began the vocal recordings. He was exactly what the band was looking for... Fantastic!

And now a new era begins again.

“Limbo” came out on March 13, 2013.
