Feature Friday: UnSun

After 10 years in the legendary death metal band Vader, Maurycy “Mauser” Stefanowicz was ready for a new direction. He left the band and eventually began a collaboration with singer Aya, originally called Unseen but now called UnSun. Their first rehearsal together proved a powerful experience of kindred souls connecting over a mutual passion to create music. It was clear from that moment on that this musical endeavor will not just be Mauser’s side project. 

Mauser and Aya recruited musicians Wawrzyniec “Vaaver” Dramowicz and Filip “Heinrich” Hałucha to expand the lineup to a four-piece and recorded the demo Whispers in 2006. They also changed the band name from Unseen to UnSun to reflect the interplay of light and dark, the melodic and the crushingly brutal in their music. Eventually, the demo caught the attention of prominent European labels and UnSun released their debut The End of Life with Century Media in 2008. Their live presence has been in demand at huge summer music festivals such as Wave Gotik Treffen, Summer Breeze and Metal Female Voices Fest. In 2010, they recorded their second album Clinic for Dolls at Hertz Studio (Behemoth, Vader, Decapitated etc.) in Bialystok and Studio X in Olsztyn. 

Clinic for Dolls is available now in North America via Armoury/Eagle Rock. Check out the song "Home" from the album on JamLegend or play it below! For more info on UnSun, please visit their MySpace page.
