Darkness Surrounding is a metal band from Wuppertal, Germany that was founded in summer 2017.

Their style is best described as Melodic Death Metal, mixed with influences from many other genres.
During songwriting, the approach is to write melodically interesting parts combined with hard hitting riffs that get stuck in your head, because the live scenario is always in mind.

After releasing two EPs in January 2019 and December 2020, the band released their third EP in December 2021, completing their first full-length album that includes all three publications to date.
The whole album was recorded in the legendary Maarweg Studios, Cologne.

In 2022 and 2023, new singles and music videos were released.

In November 2023, Darkness Surrounding signed to WeLive Agency as their booking agency.

Currently the band is finishing the studio recordings for their second album.
