Biography

Domination Through Impurity (DTI) is a two-piece death metal band from Charlotte, North Carolina. Established in 2004, DTI have made an impact in metal with their driven work ethic to create inventive and unique compositions. The band, comprised of Joe Payne (vocals, guitar, bass) and Jordan Varela (drums), are relentless in their efforts to show the world what they think death metal should be.

Joe Payne and Jordan Varela began playing together in Lust Of Decay in 2003, later forming DTI as a side project in January 2004. After several months of searching and countless auditions, no other musicians were found to fill the gaps in DTI's line-up. Payne and Varela rehearsed for a year straight before deciding it was time to start performing live. DTI played one show before entering the studio in late 2004 to record their first full-length album under Comatose Music. In February 2005, their debut album, Essence Of Brutality, hit the metal community like a punch in the gut.

With an album under their belt, Domination Through Impurity was quickly becoming part of the conversations in the world of metal. Live shows, along with added promotion from Payne joining Nile, aided their rapid and consistent rise in the underground scene. Domination Through Impurity have been working on their long-awaited sophomore release, Masochist, for over 4 years, which was originally set to be released in the spring of 2009, but this has not yet occurred. New members are currently being recruited to give DTI's music the power it needs for live performances.
