In the wake of witnessing the captivating performance of the Winery Dogs, AM Dandy's creative vision ignited, birthing the thunderous force that is Diamond Inferno (born as Thunderpetz in 2020). Driven by a yearning for raw, powerful, and edgy Hard Rock, he sought to encapsulate a sound that was both crunchy and zesty, embracing the best of both worlds.
Drawing inspiration from legendary icons like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep, Velvet Revolver, Black Stone Cherry, Motley Crue, and Slash feat. Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, as well as the finesse of the Aristocrats and David Lee Roth Band, he set out to forge an ensemble that seamlessly blended the forceful allure of Rock n' Roll with the intricate virtuosity inherent in progressive and fusion genres.
The Winery Dogs emerged as a beacon of this creative synthesis, where Rock anthems converged with instrumental prowess, giving birth to a captivating musical tapestry.
The heart of Diamond Inferno is fueled by a stellar studio lineup, with AM Dandy commanding the guitars and vocals, Stif Lo skillfully manning the drums, Guney Tamer Southesizer weaving electronic production and sound design, Jordan Lucas JLu contributing guitar and backing vocals, and Riccardo Gresino adding his magic touch on synth and keyboards. Together, they breathe life into Diamond Inferno, an electrifying testament to the sheer power and boundless creativity that emanates when talent converges in harmonious unity.
