Dommin new interview!

Dommin new interview!

New interview with Kris Dommin of the band Dommin at PureGrainAudio.

Here’s a part…

PureGrainAudio: How do you guys stand out with your live set?

Kris: I think you know, at this point what I’ve noticed for us what stands out is the style of music that we’re playing. I don’t know a lot of people doing it. And usually when we play shows we’re playing with all kinds of bands, people really seem to gravitate towards the fact that we’re doing like this kinda rock ‘n’ roll style, not necessarily metal at all. It’s just rock ‘n’ roll but, you know, it’s got some real kind of hippie overtones with the keyboards and vocals and stuff. The sound is what makes it stick out.

CKY completing work on Carver City set for release on May 19th .

New York, NY – CKY has completed mixing their 4th record, tentatively titled Carver City, set for release on Roadrunner Records on May 19. As with all their previous albums, Carver City was produced by the band’s guitarist Chad I Ginsburg. The album was recorded at Studio CIG in the band’s home state of Pennsylvania and mixed by Chad and Phil Nicolo at Studio 4 in Conshohocken, PA. Some of the eleven tracks set to appear include: "Hellions On Parade," "The Boardwalk Body," "…And She Never Returned,” “Karmaworks” and "Woe Is Me.”

Singer Deron Miller comments, “Literally all the things that have been keeping CKY strong since our last album - the undying hardcore support of our fans, our unorthodox musical approach and a brand new partnership with Roadrunner Records - have restored an enthusiasm within our band that has never been this extreme. Sobriety, hard work, patching up inner turmoil and a love for what we do has undoubtedly made this the most collaborative and focused CKY effort to date.”

Ginsburg concurs: “The album is more inventive and more layered than our past releases, with the most melodies, textures and riffs of any CKY album. It is by far the most inspired album we have ever made."

According to Miller, Carver City carries with it a “dark summer vacation vibe,” nostalgic of the band members’ childhood trips to the East Coast beaches. “The fabled town of Carver City has a history of bad luck and misfortune, all the while giving the impression that it’s a pleasant family getaway. Much like CKY's town of Hellview, Carver City's events are depicted in the songs, with story lines coming from real life events.”

CKY are planning to tour in support of their Roadrunner debut in the spring.

Dommin added to Wednesday 13 – West Coast dates!

Dommin added to Wednesday 13 – West Coast dates!

Los Angeles-based goth rock quartet Dommin will replace Son of Sam on the West Coast portion of Wednesday 13's tour in February. Due to commitments with their main bands, some of the members of Son of Sam are no longer available to tour during this time.

The dates are as follows:

Feb. 20 - El Corazon - Seattle, Washington

Feb. 21 - Satyricon - Portland, Oregon

Feb. 22 - Blake’s On Telegraph - Berkeley, California

Feb. 24 - Whisky A Go-Go - Hollywood, California

Feb. 25 - The Sets - Tempe, Arizona

Feb. 27 - Red 7 - Austin, Texas

Feb. 28 - Club Dada - Dallas, Texas

Dommin was discovered by Dirty Icon Productions, a company founded by producers Logan Mader, former guitarist of longtime Roadrunner artist Machine Head, and Lucas Banker.

Led by the enigmatic frontman, guitarist and songwriter Kristofer Dommin, Dommin puts a uniquely refreshing spin on the romantic, dark goth sound, bringing a unified voice to the brokenhearted, conflicted swarm of melancholic music fans who prefer to look at the glass as half-full. Veteran A&R rep Monte Conner signed the band to the label and was quick to express his excitement, saying, "Dommin comes across as very fresh and unique in today's landscape. Kristofer Dommin is their secret weapon. His vocals are absolutely compelling, and this is especially evident live where you can feel the power, passion and emotion of every word he sings."

Dommin's lineup is rounded out by keyboardist Konstantine, bassist Billy James and drummer Cameron.

Dommin’s video for the song "My Heart, Your Hands" can be viewed below:
