Editor's note

Taking Dawn's melodic metal with a darker edge

A Las Vegas band that built a following through steady touring and a consistent sound.

For a good sense of their approach, try 'Close Your Eyes' or 'Endlessly.' Both show that blend of melody and darker atmosphere they do well.

They carved out a space in the 2010s metal scene with albums like 'Godless' and 'The Shadow of Death.' Songs like 'Close Your Eyes' and 'Take me Away' show their blend of melody and heavier guitar work. Their music draws from traditional metal but with a darker lyrical approach that feels lived-in.

Formed in 2010 around vocalist Alex Jones and guitarist Tom Sutton, they released their debut 'Godless' in 2014. Later albums like 'Eternal Damnation' continued their steady output while maintaining their core sound. They built their following through touring rather than chasing trends.
