Dol Ammad is an electro-cosmic-symphonic power metal band from Greece.
It is the first project of the “Electronica Art Metal” vision of Thanasis Lightbridge, the second being Dol Theeta, a more atmospheric and cerebral experience.
Dol Ammad is a kind of music spaceship that combines 3 initially very different music worlds and ultimately proves that good music should be free of rules, unprejudiced and universal. Mixing elements from the electronic, the operatic and the heavy metal music worlds, Dol Ammad have created a new universe of sounds and feelings. Their music is characterized by the plethora of sounds, the adventurous compositions and the 14 member choir (7 men – 7 women) who are the “singer” in Dol Ammad.
Formed in the year 2000 Dol Ammad is the brainchild of composer Thanasis Lightbridge. Growing up with the influences of the great electronic masters such as Jean Michel Jarre and Vangelis, Thanasis Lightbridge discovered along the way the energetic and powerful world of heavy metal which changed the way he thought about music. Dol Ammad is the result of his creative and exploring nature, giving out a highly descriptive, unpredictable and artistic sound that is fresh and original.
In 2002 Dol Ammad were presented and interviewed in the Music University of Thessaloniki Greece for giving birth to a new music genre.
