Spring-summer.
Different people call and come. The relationship establishes with vocalist Dima and bass player Victor from the old Moscow band ABYSS. Not long before them appears the drummer Sergey, who was learning to play in the Pioneer center club. The attempts to get to the rehearsal base fail, so their meetings are taking place at home partly conversations with vodka, partly musical improvisations.
Autumn-the beginning of winter.
The members of the group stabilize this way: Leonid Gezalyan - guitar, Vladislav Manshin - drums, Aleksander Bulanov - bass. The 14 nth of December the historic rehearsal , which commemorates the beginning of intelligent and single minded Deimos activity, occures at the base near "Tulskaya" metro station.
Winter,2000.
The group is learning some numbers, now in Otradnoye culture center. The rehearsals take place 3 times a week.

Spring, 2007.
Long train of recording shifts is left behind, giving birth to the album “Outside emptiness”.
