Dragged into Sunlight is a British extreme metal band formed in 2006. The band consists of four balaclava-wearing individuals who perform with their backs to the audience, often accompanied by candles, a single stroboscopic light, and large amounts of smoke. Their intense sound combines influences from all major extreme metal genres. Their debut album, Hatred for Mankind, was produced by the acclaimed Billy Anderson.[1] Following the release of the album the band played Damnation Festival and Maryland Deathfest. Their second album, Widowmaker, is a 40-minute song which received high praise from the music press.[2]
