The leader and founder of Diaframma is the poet, singer, guitarist and author Federico Fiumani. A poet is a person who writes Poetry. Etymology From the Ancient greek: ποιέω, poieō: "I make or compose" The guitar is a Musical instrument with ancient roots that is used in a wide variety of musical styles An author is defined both as "the person who originates or gives existence to anything" and that authorship determines responsibility for what is created Before Fiumani took the lead, the previous singer was Nicola Vannini, followed by Miro Sassolini, who recorded the first three Diaframma's albums: Siberia, 3 Volte Lacrime and Boxe. From the initial darkwave sound, the style of Diaframma started leaning more towards punk rock because of a specific artistic choice of Federico Fiumani, who consequently took the lead and became the singer of the band. Dark Wave, also written as Darkwave, is an Umbrella term which refers to a movement that began in the late 1970s coinciding with the popularity of New Wave During various changes in the formation of Diaframma throughout the years, several great Italian musicians worked on studio recordings and toured with the band: Daniele Trambusti (drums, already working with Litfiba, Avida, Bella Band and many other historical acts of the 80s and 90s), Alessandro Gerbi (drums, already working with C.

Diaframma is probably one of the most controversial and interesting acts in Italy. They reached the status of cult band because of the charismatic leader Federico Fiumani's statements and fierce lyrics. A cult following is a group of fans devoted to a specific area of Pop culture. Notoriously, Fiumani more than once turned down very lucrative major labels' deals in order to preserve his artistic independence and maintain Diaframma's integrity, making him a sort of a hero in the underground Italian scene. A hero (from Greek grc ἥρως hērōs) in Greek mythology and Folklore, was originally a Demigod, the offspring of a mortal and Underground music refers to a variety of post-1960s rock pop or dance subgenres that developed a Cult following despite their lack of Mainstream appeal visibility Diaframma is still a very active cultural phenomenon with its roots in the heart of the 80s and an incredible number of aficionados who have been following the band for more than twenty years.
