Italian Heavy Psych/Proto-Doom trio Demonio released the sophomore full-length album “Reaching For The Light” on June 21, 2023. Stream the whole album through the band’s official YouTube channel below:
Says the band: “As promised we have a new album just out 06/21! Reaching For The Light is our second album that is available now here: demonio666.bandcamp.com.”
Italy’s power-trio Demonio in uprising force on the Stoner Doom scene in the grand tradition of classic Electric Wizard. Fittingly, their sound is just as scuzzy and desperate as that band’s pioneering works in the ’90s. But by virtue of geography, Demonio have more than a touch of the Giallo as set forth by domestic icons Goblin, Death SS, and Black Hole before them. Demonio may be strictly within the Stoner Doom idiom (or at least offer a more garage-rockin’ iteration of such), but that doesn’t mean they don’t exude their own aura – and loudly/darkly.
To date, Demonio have released an album “Electric Voodoo” (digitally) in 2021 and the three-song “Black Dawn” EP (digitally) in 2022. Both were later re-released as “Electric Voodoo Of The Black Dawn” compilation album via Helter Skelter Productions/Regain Records (CD) and DHU Records (vinyl).
