DAMNATION ANGELS: Debut From UK Symphonic Metal Quintet Out Now In North America

The debut full-length from Doncaster, England-based DAMNATION ANGELS is out now on Germany’s Massacre Records.

DAMNATION ANGELS have been taking the symphonic/power metal world by storm since their 2006 inception, with a reputation for huge drum beats, monstrous riffing, powerful and expertly performed vocals, all blended with the massive power of the orchestra. In February 2009 the band headed to the Grindstone Studio in Ipswich to create a new benchmark in symphonic metal with the aid of esteemed producer Scott Atkins (Sylosis, Cradle Of Filth). After many months of hard work, their first EP Shadow Symphony was born. The EP went on to sell well worldwide and after touring it extensively throughout the UK the band decided it was time to construct their debut album, Bringer Of Light.

After many negotiations with record labels worldwide, DAMNATION ANGELS struck a deal with Radtone Music (Japan) and released their debut album in Japan in March 2012 with the rest of the world to follow. Bringer Of Light was immediately greeted with rave reviews. Downloads and pre-orders were topping the Amazon Japan charts (over 500 sales in the first 2 weeks) and their video “Pride (The Warrior’s Way)” got over 100,000 views on YouTube. The band signed a multi-album deal with Germany’s Massacre Records, who released Bringer Of Light in Europe in February 2013 and has since released it in North America.

Once again produced by Scott Atkins, Bringer Of Light boasts just shy of an hour of epic metal DAMNATION ANGELS’ name has become synonymous with. Band main man Will Graney conducted and arranged the choirs on the album, with the amazing quality of the work he did pulling similar duties with the vocal arrangements on the latest Cradle Of Filth album, The Manticore and Other Horrors. The band brought Jan Yrlund of Darkgrove Design (Apocalyptica, Manowar, Impaled Nazarene, Stratovarius) back in to execute the album’s cover art as with their debut EP.

A little more about SOULSTORM:

Soulstorm was formed in May of 1991 by Nick Sagias (Bass/Vocals). Nick had just disbanded his previous band Overthrow and played in Holland’s Pestilence before realizing he needed to do something new and exciting. Soulstorm were one of the early underground pioneers in a wave of death metal with industrial overtones, sounding like a cross between Swans, Godflesh, Celtic Frost and Obituary.

The band quickly recorded the “Control” demo (Epidemic, 1991). Four crushing songs, sounding like no other, quickly established the band as a force in the extreme metal music scene. After many impressive live shows it was time that Soulstorm was ready to release a full-length debut CD that came in the form of the highly acclaimed “Darkness Visible” (Metal Blade/Music For Nations/Epidemic) CD in 1992. Soulstorm then released their first video for the song “Disruption”, which was directed by Andrew Hunt (Sweet Karma) and was nominated for a Much Music Video Award for Best Metal Video in 1993. The band showed no signs of slowing down after opening for Entombed, KMFDM, Cannibal Corpse, Grave, U.S.S.A., Malhavoc, Suffocation, Clutch, Cancer, Massacre and Milwaukee Metalfest ’93 as well as touring the United States and Canada with Sacrifice, Thought Industry and Genitorturers. The live band was so heavy that while opening for Genitorturers, they got kicked off the tour, missing a New York date as well as a hometown Toronto show for upstaging the headliners.

In late 1993, Nick took a new approach and re-invented the bands sound with a new touring line-up, touring across Canada with Juno award winners Monster Voodoo Machine and releasing a second full length CD, “From Euphoria To Paranoia” (Cargo, 1994). Also released at this time was the band’s second video for the song “Turning Point” that was co-directed by Sagias. After taking 1996 off, the “F.E.T.P.” line-up got back together, stripped down the sound of the band and released the “Under The Killing Sun” CD/EP to a limited run of 1000 copies on Sagias’ own label. A video for the song “Brand New Day” was also released, co-directed once again by Nick Sagias.

At the end of December 1999, Soulstorm called it quits and Nick Sagias put music on hold for the next 5 years, recording only once during that time. On and off from 2006 to 2011, Nick started laying down the foundations of Soulstorm’s 3^rd full-length CD until 2011 when Sagias properly began work on “Fall Of The Rebel Angels”, which contains guest vocals by Sacrifice’s Rob Urbinati.

The return of Soulstorm and CD release show for “Fall Of The Rebel Angels” came as a co-headlining sold out show with New York’s Hanzel Und Gretyl, to a viciously great response to the new line up of new guitarists Bryan Mallon (Wetwork) and Shawn Stoneman (Woods Of Ypres) as well as new drummer Chris Mezzabotta (Wetwork, Woods Of Ypres). The dedication and live fury of these metal veterans really showcased how deadly a live band Soulstorm could be.
