Bio

It was a very hot day (I dare to say almost “infernal”) in August 2014, when Adrian Peppe "Smith" decided to organize a jam session with DarkTranquillo "Murray": the two guitarists had played together in "MaelstroM" between 2009 and 2012.

Rosaria "Harris" (bass guitar) and some MIDI drum tracks completed the jam formation.
The session proved to be very productive, and a metal project was immediately initiated with the aim of finishing, arranging, and recording many songs sketched by Adrian Peppe "Smith".

After a few months, Michele "Svalfio" (drums) and the singer Franz officially joined the group: finally, the band was complete and took the name "Land Of Damnation".

They worked on the tracks, and each member gave their contribution; this is why the initial classic metal sound began to be enriched by dark melodic death, gothic, and thrash metal influences.

By the end of 2015, college commitments led to several line-up changes until 2017, when Land Of Damnation decided to record their first EP (Demon) with Adrian Peppe "Smith" on vocals and with Luigi "Towt" Smilzo collaborating on bass guitar.

Demon was officially released on January 9, 2018.
On October 19, 2018, with the same line-up, the band also released a single: Voluspa.

During 2019, Francesco Longo (growl & scream vocals) and Pasquale De Micco (bass guitar) started collaborating with Land Of Damnation, and then, on October 25, the band released the single WinterFall.

In August 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the band put out the EP Eleftheria i Thanatos.
Following this release, the band attempted to work on new material, but various personal commitments made progress difficult...

...and so, as often happens in underground music, we decided to cease all band activities.
