XEROSUN are a four piece Metal band hailing from Dublin, Ireland. Combining an eclectic mix of influences, Xerosun produce a melodic, powerful, aggressive and above all, original sound.

Xerosun began cutting it's teeth by writing and gigging relentlessly across Ireland and England. As time progressed, the crafting of their sound and vision continued with the expansion into the realm of music videos, shot to coincide with two EP releases. Crossing the boundaries of crushing music with soaring and passionate vocals, Xerosun have carved a place for themselves in modern metal. Their début album “Absence of Light” was awarded the maximum 5 out of 5 by the UK’s Black Velvet Magazine who described it as a “…dark sounding industrial monster… drawn together brilliantly and magnificently done”. The album can be purchased on-line at http://www.xerosun.com in a limited edition digipak with stunning artwork provided by Seth Siro Anton, who's portfolio includes the likes of Paradise Lost, Soilwork and Kamelot.

Xerosun recorded a version of Paradise Lost's seminal, gothic metal classic 'True Belief'. It pricked the ears of Paradise Lost's Guitarist, Gregor Mackintosh, who wrote to the band voicing his approval saying, "Cracking cover lads, made me feel very nostalgic". Recently, Xerosun played support to the mighty Avenged Sevenfold on the Irish leg of their world tour. The sold-out gig held in Dublin's famous Olympia Theatre saw a very receptive and engaged crowd singing lyrics and chanting for Xerosun. With a strong, grass-roots support in the US college radio circuit and a fast growing fan base in Europe, XEROSUN are set to conquer the world one crushing, melodic step at a time.
