Reaching for the Light

by Demonio

supported by

Barry_Nyle Demonio have released an even better sounding project than their eponymous outing! These guys are top of their class, top ten with Mephistofeles, Black Spell, Fulanno, Arteaga, Las Historias, Sonic Demon, IBLISS, Loose Sutures, and Wizard Master. Looking forward to all Demonio future projects with fantastic anticipation! Hail Favorite track: Shiva's Dance.

DNAcorruption A brilliant progression from their earlier stuff, still got the Acid soaked, fuzzy psy-rock vibe that we all know and love, digging the alternative 60’s feel, (‘I’m free’ especially). Was very happy to see vinyl copies still available! - ps. Demonio’s artwork = 🤘🏻👌🏻 Favorite track: I'm Free.

Ralph Rivera Sharing a vocalist(at the very least) with fellow Doomheads Black Spell, Demonio play a similar style of Italian Doom. But where Black Spell likes to get there groove on and then whip out some acid guitar for a few bars, Demonio are more likely to go off trippin. Sometimes down shifting midway thru the song and wandering off into the black lite woods to look for shrooms. Doom with a trippy 60s Psych vibe to feed yur head. And do I hear some "Sundial" in there? U will b chuffed!

about

HELTER SKELTER PRODUCTIONS (distributed & marketed by REGAIN RECORDS) is proud to present the highly anticipated second album of Italy's DEMONIO, Reaching for the Light, on CD and vinyl LP.

An uprising force on the stoner doom scene, Italy's DEMONIO is a power-trio 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.

DEMONIO proved as much with their 2021 debut album, Electric Voodoo, and the Black Dawn EP a year later - both packaged together by HELTER SKELTER as Electric Voodoo of the Black Dawn in late 2022 - and they'll prove it even louder with Reaching for the Light. As presaged by its title, Reaching for the Light shines a blacklight on slightly brighter textures still imbued with an underlying darkness. It's not to say that DEMONIO are somehow now "happy"-sounding or whatever; rather, there's an overt abundance of blissful sine-waves coursing through their rowdy, rumbling sound. And, not to mention, the wah-wah pedal - TONS of it - as well as hip-shaking groove, altogether making Reaching for the Light a trippier excursion to sun-drenched shores and infinite psychedelic possibilities. Whoever said stoner doom had to be all negative all the time? Cool, calm, and collected, DEMONIO encourage you to start Reaching for the Light!

The recipe is equal parts heavy and psychedelic sounds! Distorted guitars lay the foundation. Heavily distorted Hendrixian guitar solo’s screaming over backdrops of raw scuzzy acidic proto-doom ! Stephan

Heavily fuzzed stoner doom with a pure 1970s feel that brings to mind bands like Atomic Rooster, Spooky Tooth and early Black Sabbath. Their song-writing is quite impressive, however, I 'm sure they can be more inspired with their choice of cover artworks. That aside, both their releases are of great quality and show that this band is capable of bigger things in the future. Check them out today! Ioannis Valiakos
