Metal Hammer Magazine Preview (August 2007)
Metal Hammer Magazine Review (September 2007)

Dominic Cifarelli’s rise in the music world started as guitarist of Montreal metal band Pulse Ultra, whose 2002 debut album release Headspace earned them a slot on the second stage of the 2002 Ozzfest alongside bands such as System of A Down, Meshuggah, Ozzy Osbourne and White Zombie. Dominic was also featured on the cover of Guitar One’s "The New Guitar Heroes - 10 Players You Must Know" in November of the same year.His debut solo album "The Chronicles of Israfel," a semi-instrumental guitar masterpiece has been gaining momentum and has already received critical acclaim in britain’s biggest metal magazine Metal Hammer.Drawing influences from violent Japanese anime, the sound of the album is full of aggressive guitar driven epics showcasing Dominic’s musical and songwriting talent. The diversity of sonic landscapes combined with a multiplicity of unique guitar styles, forms a truly singular sounding album. It is destined to stand out and quench the appetite of his rapidly growing cult-like fan base.Dominic and the boys have been hard at work putting together the live show and he expects to start hitting the stage this fall.Pick up the album now by clicking on the album cover’s image above and it will be shipped directly to your doorstep!Get Your Own Voice Player Manage
