Dominion would appeal to FANS of :
The Cure, The Sisters of Mercy , Fields of the Nephilim ,
The Cult , Him , 69eyes , The Mission UK ,
Lacrimosa , 80's bands.
Dominion is a goth rock band, from Manila, the Philippines.
cited as one of Asia's more relevant & longer running goth rock bands to date.
Although western rock influences are evident in the band's look and sound ; Dominion are believed to have uniquely injected eastern chord structures & authentic filipino symbolism & instrumentation in their brand of songwriting identitiy,
Their song "Luksa" is proof of this, considered the first tagalog "goth" song of it's kind. although some band members are non-filipinos ; the band has maintained this concept and ideology.
Formed in 1994, the band was a vehicle to deliver originally written music in the gothic rock vein to the unsuspecting local filipino underground.
Founded by Doi Porras (*drums/vox) along with recruited members Mike Strange (*vox/guitars),Iman leonardo (*bass), Raymond Paras (*guitar) and later Ady baysa (synths), They are noted to expose and be a main influence in today's filipino gothic scene.
Influential enough to be covered by national TV and print media,their album "Hand of cain" although not a commercially successful release is regarded as an important relic that has cemented the road for later bands to follow.
Although an independent band; Dominion achieved National tours sponsored by major brands such as Jack Daniels, Colt 45 , San Miguel Beer, Philippine Airlines and Axe Cologne;
They have also have appeared constantly on Abs-Cbn TV ; RPN TV ; MTV Asia; and have co-billed with Kozi (ex Malice mizer / Japan), Angina Pectoris (Germany), & Eve of destiny (Japan) aside from relevant Filipino bands like Dahong palay,Razor back,Alamid, Advent call, & Sugar hiccup,
Dominion articles, Blurbs and press has been published by important reads such as Pulp Magazine , Philippine daily star, Philippine inquirer, Manila bulletin and lately in British Goth documentarist Mick mercer's book. "Music to die for"
Many fans of underground music credit them to have pioneered the spread of goth music in the Philippines since the early nineties.
"This is a definite for any fan of The Sisters of mercy, The Mission Uk,
The Cure, 69 eyes and Him"
