Dawn, melodic black metal band from Sweden:
The history of Dawn goes back to 1990 when founder and guitarist Fredrik Söderberg left his former band, Obduracy. (Even earlier than that, back in 1985-1986, Fredrik also was a member of CRANIUM, who later changed their name to LEGION). Hailing from Linköping, Sweden and therefore being close friends with death metal cult band SEANCE, it was not long before Patrik Jensen (today in The Haunted and Witchery) recommended a new guitarist to Fredrik: Andreas Fullmestad (formerly in MORGUE). Fredrik and Andreas got together and the unit was completed by drummer Karsten Larsson and bassist Dennis Karlsson (both ex-MORTIFIED members). The final addition to this early Dawn line-up was Henke Forss (FUNERAL FEAST, IN FLAMES), providing the band with death growls from hell.

Dawn, Progressive Rock band from Switzerland
Dawn creates its own music with a vintage sound, inspired by great british bands.

Between 2005 and 2006, Dawn played several live performances: opening band for Kansas and Fish, "Montreux Prog Nights" and Progsol festivals.

Recorded in 2007, Loneliness is the first official record of Dawn. The album is about life: dawn and dusk; ups and downs. This record is well balanced with short tracks, like "Dusk" and "Loneliness", as well as longer ones like "The Story of Nobody". Building on its favourite "vintage sound" (mellotron, old Korg ...), the band has found a style of its own, with clear melody, complex rhythms, moods....
