Review in the Roadie Crew Magazine - Edition #37 - February 2002

DOOMONIC

Introduction of this demo - many (including myself at the beginning) may think it’s about Black Metal style, but when the second track, Legions Of The Lost, starts to play, we realize that it is not exactly that… The quartet is from Jundiai/SP. Marcelo Vita (vocals), Nody Milan (guitars) Fábio Bueno (bass) and Marcelo Ricardo (guitars), play Heavy Metal with some of Thrash Metal, great guitar lines (both riffs and solos) and vocal lines with a lot of melody and aggressiveness. I’m not pretty sure on how to mention bands that  sound like Doomonic, but in the course of the demo, we find influences of Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Mercyful Fate and others - you can see that it sounds very eclectic, doesn’t it? Other tracks to mention are In The Name Of God and Welcome To Insanity. It’s worth to highlight that the record quality achieved by Doomonic is outstanding!

This band must, soon, release its ‘debut’ in 2002. By Ricardo Campos.

Beneath the debris of a lost world

There is no doubt that this Demo-CD is the best production that arrived here in the magazine ever! It’s an incredible work of any perspective. Impeccable production, excellent recording, well done booklet, cool cover, band photo…

Everything well planned and executed! Regarding the songs, you can’t compare it with a particular tendency or style. It’s a music that mixes Traditional Heavy Metal with some sort of Prog Metal and True Metal, with a very clear aggressiveness.

All five tracks are very good, with no exception. Highlights to “Legions Of The Lost”

A big ovation to Marcelo Vita (V), Nody Milan (G), Marcelo Ricardo (G), Fábio Bueno (B) and Lucky Arnold (D), for their Doomonic. By Edgar Piccin.

 

Review in the Rock Brigade Magazine - Edition #192 - June 2002

DOOMONIC

That’s what I call a professional job! Nice booklet, good songs and a very good taste in the compositions. The CD-Demo Beneath the debris of a lost world is a good example of careful work, with no need of wasting a lot of money to do so. Start listening the CD by the track called In The Name Of God that has a riff that does not stay behind what Scott Ian from Anthrax used to do in the late 80’s. Wonderful! Welcome To Insanity is good too; it squanders talent in the guitars riffs. Overall, it’s a great band that certainly brings some nostalgia for those who liked Metallica in the Kill ‘em all days.

DDoomonic - “[Exodus 21:24]”

With 8 years on the road, Doomonic is one of the good bands from Jundiaí that is struggling for a place in the sun. After the relative success of the demo “Beneath the debris of a lost world” (2001), also issued in Europe, Japan and Latin America, and some changes in the original line-up, these guys issued in July the newest work: “[Exodus 21:24]. The album brings five tracks of a very well executed Death Metal, with the addition of refrains with enough melody, characteristic possible mainly due to the Heavy Metal like vocals from Marcelo Vita; curiously in some parts the similarity with Robie Zombie vocals on White Zombie times comes to my mind. In “Purified and blessed”, track that opens the demo with a lot of energy, it becomes evident the intention of the band to sail through aggressive and melodic places, alternating the tempo of the music every moment. All that combined with the anguish portrayed in the lyrics makes this music one of the best of this work. A distinction also to the outstanding sound quality of the demo, clearly influenced by the work of the experienced and acclaimed sound engineer Paulo Maltauro. The years of

 

service performed by him and his studio “Happy Sound” helped the bassist Fábio Bueno and the guitarist Marcelo Ricardo on their work of mixing and concluding the recording. By the way, Marcelo Ricardo also takes part of the excellent southern rock band “Los Bandydoz”.The experience acquired by the guitarist Nody Milan and the drummer Diego Prado in their other projects - Warhead and Daemocracy respectively, widely shows the maturity reached by Doomonic in this work, offering the fans a cohesive, balanced and melodic sound, without losing the fury and aggressiveness necessary to ant Death Metal band. Particularly, my preferred track of the demo is “Stranded in hell [Exodus 21:24], that starts with a guitar fingering  filled with a beautiful solo and a slow drum phrase, worthy of the classics immortalized by Schuck Schuldiner’s Death.

Note of the band: drum parts in [Exodus 1:24] demo by Luck Arnold, not Diego Prado, as mentioned in this review.
