I'm not sure it was great, but thanks much for watching and joining the conversation! 🤟

Good effort, sir! Well documented! If we discount anyone who was a stand-in only for a video, there have been ten members: two each Liliths, Lamias, and Nixes, three Abrahels, and one Rusalka. Lamia 2 has been in every vid except FIHS, and Lilith 2's voice is on the album and now in every video (Isa Roddy's vocals for FIHS having been replaced, and although it's her person in the MFP and FZ vids, it's apparently Lilith 2's voice: Isa has more high tones and fewer low ones than current Lilith's). The mask looks to have been adopted because Lilith 2 doesn't look much like Isa, so the mask was brought in to obscure the change in identity. (I'm sure you've seen the this-is-why-Lilith-now-has-a-mask vid on the band's YT channel.) But holy hells I'm sick of that mask, as is literally everyone else whom I've read comment on it. And given how much concert footage is out there with Lilith maskless, I really don't see the point in continuing with the damned thing. The touring lineup is Lilith 2, Lamia 2, Nixe 3, Abrahel 3, and Rusalka. Further, they've gelled so well onstage--and they're all such good musicians and performers--that I truly hope no more personnel changes are made. Rusalka would be the most likely person to withdraw now because she most actively has her own thing going on with another band(s). But good luck trying to hide that replacement: she and Nixe are the most distinctive-looking of the five members. I assume you saw the publicity photo was released right before the Latin American tour, with Lilith in the standard mask and everyone else wearing masks, too (the non-Liliths' masks were identical to each other's and very different than Lilith's). When I saw that photo, honestly I was pretty irritated because I'd already shelled out the dough to go to Peru and see them, and I didn't want to go see a band that might be different people entirely than any lineup we'd seen. I guess management must have gotten that reaction from a lot of people, because the masks disappeared (even Lilith's, thankfully). I mean, sure, it's a manufactured band, but I have zero interest in seeing an outfit all of whose members can be swapped out at will. The current members are established and (or so I'm told) have an active hand in things, with no qualms about disagreeing with management. (Again, I'm told this; I don't know it.) So why the the mask persists is beyond me. Masked Lilith is even on the U.S. tour shirt. I encourage you to head over to the WeAreDogma subreddit. Lots of good info there. Thanks much for watching and joining the conversation! 🤘

Right on! I'm curious about 1) how they know you [I assume you were at a Meet & Greet...?] and 2) how/why the Witches aren't among the biggest names in Metal. Thanks for watching and chiming in! 🤘

No no no--the sin was in you all along, it just needed something to draw it out. 😉 Thanks for watching and joining the conversation! 🤘

@@dugfreez you are quite welcome! Based on the two shows I have seen, they are indeed getting better (and they were pretty damn good to begin with)

@@curtiscarpenter9398 I'm glad you found the video helpful. Thanks for watching!

@@salva0922 Oh yeah, they almost never break character even when answering questions. There have been several lineup changes. Current Lilith is on the album, but I don't know about the other members.

@@97warlock Oh yeah, Crypta are excellent musicians!

I expect that someone eventually will post the full Chicago show. I agree with your assessment: I don't know how any Metal or Hard Rock fan cannot love this band. I mean, even without all that sexy, the music speaks for itself. Thanks for watching and joining the conversation! 🤘

@@MetalProfessor65 I sure hope so, I NEED to see that show so bad now... keep rocking

Agreed 100%, friend.

The next song at that show she ripped her earbuds out, and you could see her speaking loudly to technicians behind the screens...

I'll watch that video! Yes, the Chicago show was one of the best concerts of my life. And I don't know how many people were there, but it wasn't more than fifty, maybe sixty. I don't understand the low turnout on the U.S. tour. The band needs more exposure somehow because once a Metal or Hard Rock fan hears *one* song, I expect most will be hooked immediately. Thanks for watching and chiming in! 🤘

No, I don't think they're supposed to be monsters. The face paint and mystery identities is a schtick, like KISS. I can tell you, though, that it's planned for more than just piquing curiosity amontg fans. Thanks for watching and joining the conversation! 🤘

Yeaahhhh. It ruined a lot of the audio, but it was also quite endearing. She was *so excited* to be there that it made me smile. Thanks for watching! 🤘

That's encouraring news about the CD! I'm eager to get mine, and I sure hope it contains those two songs. The day I bought it, it indicated "Be Free" on the track list, but when I checked the next day, "Be Free" was gone. So we'll see what happens. Thanks for watching and joining the conversation! 🤘

Wow, thanks! Yeah, I love this band, not in a parasocial fan fixation way (I think), but their music is so damn good, their stage show has become so damn good, and the performers are not only skilled, but great personalities that just pull you in. Thanks for watching and thanks for the sub! 🤘

Thanks so much for kind words! And I agree with you re: the ladies' evolution as performers. And yeah, Bob was totally into it! I got a pat on the head from Rusalka, but she didn't put her boot on me. Ah well, maybe next time... 😉🤘

Good for you , man! I hope that someone will post the entire Chicago show at some point.

@MetalProfessor65 also a guy in boston show had a Bible and lilith new member had peaces ripped then I got some 1 peace signed by new member cool lmk if somebody post Dogma show u went to thanks brother a happy early new years eve to u too .take care .

Thanks for watching! Yeah, Ian DiLeo is definitely in charge--he's the brain behind the whole project--but I don't see nearly as much tight-fisted control as is sometimes claimed.

@@MetalProfessor65 You're welcome! I always enjoy your videos. I totally agree. It's his job to be in charge, but I have the feeling he trusts the girls and lets them do their thing.

Also, class video as always Professor

It was good to meet you! Oh yeah, Dogma have grown astoundingly. They're like a different band than I saw in July. OH--and I've an interview scheduled with Bullet to the Heart, so keep an eye out for that one! Thanks for watching, and I hope I see you at another Chicago concert sometime 🤘😊

No, it's the same Lilith as on the tour and (I'm told) on the album. She's the second Lilith, although the videos make it confusing. Thanks for watching and chiming in! 🤘

@@corn1078 Yeah I wasn't the biggest Katana fan, either. After some back and forthing, I eventually settled on the Blackstar Silverline Deluxe, and I am quite happy with it. Thanks for watching!

For the most detailed, informed explanation, head over to the subreddit WeAreDogma. There's a pretty detailed explanation of what's known of the band so far--BUT no public discussion of speculation of the ladies' real names is allowed.

@ thanks 🤘

Absolutely! They're in the sequel vid. :) Thanks for watching and chiming in! 🤘

@@MetalProfessor65 Ah, OK you are ahead of me :-) I only just discovered your channel.

@@Jah-Knee it was damn good, wasn't it? Thanks for watching and chiming in! 🤟

@@matthewpasternak8128 As noted in my review of that specific song, anyone who was taken aback by Madonna's video will have an absolute brain hemorrhage when they see Dogma's. Thanks for watching and joining the conversation! 🤟
