Which may explain dios' surprising success in a relatively short period of time, the band's greenness as performers notwithstanding. Just four months removed from the release of its first EP (and two months since dios dropped), the quintet has already toured with the likes of Grandaddy, Saves the Day, the Shins, and now Beulah.
