History

Phenomy consisted of founders Loïc El Haddad, Rudy Bejjani, Adel Hassan (vocals), Dany Arfan (guitar) and Raymond Ghorayeb (bass).

The quintet started to get booked in local shows just 3 months after their formation in the Persian Rock And Metal Festival[1] in Çanakkale, Turkey. Phenomy played their first show in December 2014, at Christmas Mission,[2] a charity event that hosted more than 20 bands.

The lineup changed when the band entered the studio to record their first album Once And For All. Sam Felfly joined the band to become the new vocalist, and Kevin Ghanem took over the bass guitar.

After releasing Once And For All,[3] Phenomy went on to their first European tour and toured Eastern European countries including Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Croatia and Bulgaria. They became one of the few Middle Eastern bands to tour in Europe.

The band worked on a set of songs with Tribal and Ethnic influences mixed with the Thrash/Groove metal sounds on their second album Threaten World Order.[4] The album was released in February 2018. The album included fan-favorites Sacrifice and Dance of the Wounded Souls, that became anticipated tracks to be played live by the band.

Phenomy entered the Middle Eastern Wacken Battle of the Bands,[5] a competition that allowed them to play at one of the biggest metal festivals, Wacken Open Air.[6] The band also performed in the Metalhead Meeting Festival[7] a month before W.O.A, sharing the stage with Children of Bodom, Soulfly, Epica, Sonata Arctica, Kataklysm, Carach Angren and many more.
