DOMMIN Frontman Interviewed By LACUNA COIL's CRISTINA SCABBIA

February 7, 2010

LACUNA COIL frontwoman Cristina Scabbia conducted an interview with vocalist Kristofer Dommin of the Los Angeles-based alternative rock band DOMMIN when Kristofer was in Milan, Italy recently on a promotional visit. Watch the chat below.

DOMMIN, whose Roadrunner Records debut, "Love is Gone", was released on February 2, will be touring with HIM, WE ARE THE FALLEN and DRIVE A this spring. The trek kicks off on March 26 in Philadelphia and will run through early May. DOMMIN will appear as the second of four bands on the bill, after DRIVE A and before WE ARE THE FALLEN.

DOMMIN's darkly romantic brand of music focuses on things like heartbreak and love lost, set to lush, epic soundscapes. With "Love is Gone", heartache has a new soundtrack.

Those who've already seen the band perform live last summer were impressed, with ABC News 12 in Flint/Detroit saying, "The band had undeniable charm on its side. And seeing that kind of passion and potential doesn't happen every night."

DOMMIN has done several tours in the past year leading up to the album's release. They've hit the road with a variety of acts, including COMBICHRIST, WEDNESDAY 13, select dates on Warped Tour, THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE, LACUNA COIL and THE 69 EYES. The band will have played over 100 shows before the record's release.

Outburn called the album "trimmed with synth pop tinkerings" while Ultimate Guitar said "There's certainly a 'The Crow'-like darkness to DOMMIN, but it's more inviting and welcoming than it is dangerous and distant," and "The lyrics also explore topics like fractured relationships, love being a living hell, celebrating dark holidays and other damage that's inflicted on our fragile aortas. If anything, Kristofer Dommin is doing his best to be the voice of the brokenhearted. It's a topic that never goes cold in rock music and DOMMIN add their own heat to it."
