In 2012 DoctoR DooM recorded a 3 track EP called “DoomO” which managed to get the attention of US label STB Records, as well as the interest of Rock fans around the world.
Following the success of this disc, the group was part of several noteworthy festivals, including Doom Over Karalis (Sardinia), Riff
