Dragged into Sunlight is a British extreme metal band formed in 2006. Details on the identities of the band are purposefully vague, with all members wearing balaclavas in promotional photos, and performing with their backs toward the audience. The band’s live shows are infamous for their intensity, with accompanying candles, a single stroboscopic light, and large amounts of smoke. Their 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]
