Damnation Angels are taking the world by storm and redefining Symphonic Metal in the process. Formed late 2006, the band have gained a reputation for huge drum beats, monsterous riffing, powerful and expertly performed vocals blended with the massive power of the orchestra. Original band members, Maestro, drummer John Graney and bassist Gabriel Scott were joined in 2008 by keyboardist Dawn Trigg and singer Lewis Starfire to complete the lineup. Having perfected their live performance playing many shows and numerous tours around the UK the band decided it was time to take it to the next level.
In February 09 the band headed to Grindstone studios Ipswich to create a new benchmark in symphonic metal with the aid of esteemed producer Scott Atkins (Sylosis, Man Must Die, Mutant). After many months of hard work “Shadow Symphony” was born and with the aid of top Finnish artist Jan Yrlund (Korpiklaani, Sirenia, Turisas) “Shadow Symphony” would be brought to life and the vision would be complete. The music is rich and varied, heavy with dark undertones and sets a new standard for symphonic metal. The heavenly voice of Lewis Starfire carries throughout with passion and power, delivering exactly what the music deserves.
Damnation Angels represent more than just symphonic metal, they represent a dividing line between what was known and what is to be, with unfaltering passion for their music the sound of Damnation Angels is now stronger than ever.
