Darkness Surrounding is a metal band from Wuppertal, Germany.

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. Complemented by the vocal duo of Kessi and Tim, the listener is set for an enthralling listening experience!

The band released their debut album „Reality Unreal“ in December 2021.
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.

In 2024, the band played numerous festivals such as Metal Frenzy, Turock Fest and Metal Hammer Paradise and embarked on their first EU-tour as support for „The Iron Maidens“.

Furthermore, the band released their newest single „Lethargy“ in October of 2024.

Currently, Darkness Surrounding is finishing the studio recordings for their second album.
