Domine

Domine is an Italian power metal band that’s been delivering epic, fantasy-driven anthems since the late '90s. Hailing from Florence, the group was founded by guitarist Enrico Paoli and is known for blending galloping riffs, symphonic keyboards, and soaring vocals, often inspired by sword-and-sorcery themes like Michael Moorcock’s *Eternal Champion* saga (a clear influence on tracks like *Champion Eternal* and *Stormbringer Ruler*). Their releases, including *Emperor of the Black Runes* (2004) and *Ancient Spirit Rising* (2008), showcase their knack for storytelling and unapologetic love for grandiose, melodic metal. With operatic vocals from frontman Morby and a loyal following in the European metal scene, Domine carved out a niche as purveyors of heroic, keyboard-laden power metal before going on hiatus in the late 2000s. Their catalog remains a treasure trove for fans of bands like Rhapsody or Blind Guardian.
