DOL AMMAD are the brainchild of composer-keyboardist Thanasis Lightbridge who formed this innovative band in 2000 trying to blend his many influences of electronic, metal and classical music. The result is a highly descriptive, unpredictable and artistic sound that is totally fresh and original. The vocal tasks of DOL AMMAD are taken over by a 12-part classical choir consisting of members of one of Greece's best youth choirs and are all professional musicians. The band describes itself as "Electronica - Art - Metal" and in 2002 DOL AMMAD were presented and interviewed in the Music University of Thessaloniki Greece for giving birth to a new music genre!
DOL AMMAD released 2 demo CDs in 2001 and 2002 which were incredibly well received by the metal world.
By the end of 2003 and during the first half of 2004, DOL AMMAD arranged and produced their much anticipated debut full album with the inclusion of drummer Alex Holzwarth of Rhapsody and Sieges Even. The drum recordings took place at the famous "Gate Studio" in Wolfsburg Germany under the production and engineering skills of Sascha Paeth and Olaf Reitmeier.
The rest of the recordings, mixing and mastering took place in Thanasis' personal project studio "Theeta" in Thessaloniki Greece by him and sound engineer Argy Stream.
The debut DOL AMMAD album is entitled "Star Tales" and features 12 tracks of operatic and progressive fantasy metal lasting 62 minutes.
