DAMNZAL BIOGRAPHY
Damnzal spends its time finding new ways to spew forth a heavy mash of new edge punk/metal tunes that fans of contemporary heavy music would enjoy. The ferocity in Paula's songs is confronting and at times quite brutal, but tries to achieve a sense of diversity. The current CD which was mastered by Drew Lavyne (Foo Fighters, RHCP) hits the listener “like a freight train on heat” with infectious riffs and hooks that collide in a mixture of extreme, hardcore and melodic types of metal as well as seventies style punk.
Initially. the band members came together in early 2003 and consisted of Tania Pennisi on lead vocals (ex Ruby Doomsday), Paula Condell on lead guitar (ex Velvet Hammer, Spine Of God), Vanessa Payne on bass guitar (ex Ruby Doomsday) and Scott Danson on drums (ex Cyclone Tracy). Each band member has had a history within the Australian music industry and each had been actively involved in the scene for several years whether it be in previous musical projects, bands, releasing vinyl/CDs/DVDs, video production, touring, merchandising etc. In early 2008, Scotty, Tania and Vanessa have decided to leave Damnzal to pursue other interests outside of the music industry, consequently Damnzal will remain as a solo project of Paula with special guest musicians.
The self-titled debut CD (Australian release only) which was released late 2004 has received excellent reviews in both Australian and international webzines and street press, and the prior demo songs have managed to chart successfully reaching the top 10 of the metal charts on the mp3 site. The CD is distributed nationally by MGM. It was recorded by friend Chris Gatz at GM Sound Studios on Pro Tools. Mastering courtesy of Crystal Mastering.
Damnzal have released a video clip for cherry bomb, one of the tracks from the self-titled debut CD. The video was shot by Peter Andrian (Unlimited Vision) who has done extensive work for many Australian artists, including 1200 techniques and DJ Peril. It has already been screened on most of your favourite music shows including Rage, Asylum, Channel V and MTV Aust. The response has been overwhelming!
In April 2007, Damnzal signed to Dead Famous (Astral) records worldwide, and will have their CD released in the US with Blastzone/Nightmare and Fontana/Universal in Canada. The new CD has been re-mixed By Mike Puskas and Matt Lefroy at Salt Studios and mastered by Drew Lavyne in New York (Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chilli Peppers) fame, for a release in October.
In the short lifespan of the band, Damnzal has had the pleasure of playing with many bands of note: the highlight obviously being the Pungent Stench (Austria) support gig 2005, but also proud to have played with other local and interstate bands. The band has also managed to attain the quiet attention of various industry people including Alan Griffith (Union Entertainment USA: who manage Nickleback, Cinderella etc) and promoters who have greatly assisted with various promotional activities including promotion of the demo in the UK metalfests 2004, where Damnzal was the centre of attention amongst all other submissions. Further to this Damnzal has been published in the esteemed European Metalmaidens magazine, Faster Louder, the Age Melbourne, street magazines and various local, interstate and international websites.
