Biography
Originally formed under the moniker Unseen the dynamic four piece around Polish guitar maestro Mauser (who is also playing in Vader, one of Poland's renowned metal bands) the band finally decided that something incorporating day and night, light and darkness would suit them best. A label for their music which is melancholic and a little dark at times, yet catchy at the same time. Something that would put a name to the bitter-sweet twist of Aya's highly melodic vocals topping the driving force of the underlying guitar riffs. This unique mix easily makes UnSun's debut album "The End Of Life" one of the most promising releases of the year.
Consolidated by the sheer passion to play intense music, Mauser and Aya knew upon their first rehearsals that it was their destiny to create music together.
Right from this supernova it was clear that UnSun was not supposed to be just another side-project for Mauser, but his personal way of exploring new music. Thus, he and Aya started looking for other exceptional musicians to make UnSun a full-time band. Very soon Vaaver from Indukti and Heinrich, who also plays bass in Vesania, teamed up with Mauser and Aya to form the high profile band they are today. During ice cold winter days at the end of 2006 they entered the studio to record their first demo. It didn't take long until UnSun caught the attention of various labels throughout Europe and in 2007 they finally signed a deal with Mystic Production in their native Poland. The ink hadn't fully dried yet when Mauser and Aya already started writing the first songs for what should become their debut-album "The End Of Life" which was recorded in Poland's Studio-X in the beginning of 2008 and will see its European release September 22nd with UnSun's new, worldwide partner Century Media Records.
