When Day Descends

When Day Descends are a progressive atmospheric rock/metal band from Tasmania, Australia. The project began in 2001 as a solo project for guitarist Dave Caswell and has since developed into a full band with the addition of Linton Tuleja on drums since 2006 and Liam Constable on vocals and guitars since 2007.
The music is influenced by progressive rock, post rock and atmospheric progressive metal, with each release having its own signature sound. Future releases will continue to evolve by bringing varying styles into the mix, from folk to black metal and everything in between. The songs are detailed and creative, exploring the darker side of the human experience.
When Day Descends have released three studio albums. The first of these, "Transcend", was released as an instrumental solo project in 2005. This album is based around detailed acoustic driven progressive rock, which builds into progressive metal influenced climaxes. The second album, "Ascension", is a single 40-minute film-score inspired piece. It was released for free download in 2006. 2010 saw the release of the first self-titled album as a full band, which explores long progressive songs again, this time based around the heavier side of music.
Work has already begun on a new EP, which represents the first album where writing is split more evenly between all band members. This EP is tentatively planned for release early in 2011, and will be another unique twist in the When Day Descends discography.
