The band was formed in the early 2000s with the name
Darkshine. After a period of line up changes, inner troubles and first works,
in August 2003 Darkshine recorded the self produced mcd “The Nightside
of Eden”. In October of the same year the band started its
collaboration with the promotional agency Kick Agency Promotion. During the
promotion of the “The Nightside of Eden” Darkshine played many gigs with bands
like Mayhem, Theatres des Vampires, Cadaver and Ensoph. Within only one
year, the band got a strong reputation by Italian and European
underground scene with their mcd album, "The Nightside of Eden”. The 28th
August 2004 Darkshine/Draconian Order played at Italofest in London where
they signed for the label SixSixSix managed by Tim Fraser. In the same
period Darkshine decided to change their name in DRACONIAN ORDER. The
first official album, which can be classified how a modern mix of black
metal with gothic atmosfears, will be entitled “In Absence of Ligh!
t” and it will be out in the first half of the 2005. The lyrics and the
music of “In Absence of Light” focus on the failure of Christian dogma
on earth, only when every light has faded away the darkness can show
the path leading to evil. The decadent love for everything that is evil
gave the birth to this new modern dark form of art; like in dead night
where the angels fall , like in a terror tale where the solitude breeds
suicide, the perverted notes of “In Absence of Light” will be the
soundtrack for the funeral of god.
