History & Biography
Damien played hard 'n heavy, was formed as early as 1981 and came from Toledo, Ohio. The early incarnations was that of a cover band, but originals won the day around 1985. The band recorded the Hammers Of The Gods and Onslaught Without Mercy demos in 1986. The band's manager David Preschel obtained a four-album contract for the band with Select. The same man would produce the debut album.

Wolf left in 1990 and was replaced with Troy Moore. Moore was replaced by Scott Miller. Miller was heard on Angel Juice and the band broke up. Miller, in turn, was replaced by the returning Wolf. The first two records were re-released in 2005 by PowerPlay Records in the USA. SPV had another Damien on its roster earlier too. A demo called Beyond Apathy emerged in 2011. Candle Of Life was a 2018 compilation and DVD that was taped in the early ‘90s. Like-wise St. Clair Tapes of 2018 featured demo tracks. Stohl was a guitar teacher. The band opened for Night Ranger and Sebastian Bach in 2022.
