Deus Ex Machina were formed in 1989 in Athens, Greece by Dimitris Spyropoulos and Dimitris Manthos. Spyropoulos, current drummer Yiannis Venardis and ex singer Nikos Charalambopoulos (Tsouloufis) were all veterans of the local punk scene of the early 80s in the band Adiexodo. The new band, DXM, set out dynamically, eventually gaining the overwhelming acceptance of the alternative crowds. In the years to come they played over 500 concerts increasing their popularity and building a reputation of a predominantly kicking live band in spite of their limited discography.
In the course of their history DXM have suffered several setbacks including a number of serious car accidents and repeated personnel changes. So far, not only did they persevere, but overcoming such adversities they seem to return with added stamina each time. Nowadays, DXM are regarded as one of the major established acts of the Greek alternative scene.
Some of the highlights of their history include their appearances at landmark anti-Bosnian war concerts in Skopje, FYROM in 1994.
