Band Information:

 DEMON is a British heavy metal band that has been active in the music industry for over four decades. The band was formed in 1979 and has since then released thirteen studio albums, three live albums, and two compilations.

One of the notable aspects of DEMON's music is their ability to blend various genres of music. The band's music combines elements of heavy metal, hard rock, and progressive rock. This unique style has earned them a loyal fan base, and they are considered one of the pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

DEMON's debut album, "Night of the Demon," was released in 1981 and received critical acclaim. The album featured tracks such as "Don't Break the Circle" and "The Plague," which became fan favorites. The album's success helped the band to secure a record deal with major label CBS/Epic.

Over the years, DEMON has undergone several lineup changes, with Dave Hill being the only original member still present in the band. Despite these changes, the band's signature sound has remained intact, and their music continues to be highly regarded.

DEMON's music has been described as melodic and dynamic, with powerful guitar riffs, memorable choruses, and intricate arrangements. The band's lyrics often deal with themes of the occult, horror, and fantasy. However, they have also tackled more serious subjects, such as political and social issues.

In terms of commercial success, DEMON may not have achieved the same level of fame as some of their peers. Nevertheless, the band has remained a cult favorite among heavy metal fans, and their music continues to influence new generations of metal musicians.
