UnSun was a Polish gothic metal band formed in 2006 by ex-guitarist Maurycy "Mauser" Stefanowicz of death metal band Vader. Their debut album, entitled The End of Life, was released on 19 September 2008 by Century Media Records. Their second album Clinic for Dolls was released on 11 October 2010 via Mystic Production. Despite Unsun had planned to enter the studio in 2015 to record the follow up to Clinic for Dolls, vocalist Anya Stefanowicz's health conditions got worse and prevented her from recording vocal lines. Having seen no improvement, Unsun was forced to disband on 5th February, 2016.
UnSun was founded by ex-Vader guitarist Mauser and his wife, lead vocalist Anna "Aya" Stefanowicz. Originally named Unseen, they later changed their name to UnSun to reflect their blending of death metal influences and melodic vocals. Mauser and Aya added additional musicians to complete the group. In 2007, the group was signed with Mystic Production.
The band's style has been compared to Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, Evanescence, Within Temptation, and The Gathering.
In early 2008, Anna and Maurycy Stefanowicz began writing their first album, The End of Life, which was recorded at Studio-X in 2008. It was released through Century Media Records on 19 September 2008. The album features gothic metal and rock with a "homogenous mix" of hard guitar sound and tender melodies.AllMusic's reviewer noted that the album was far from Vader's Death metal and oriented more towards commercial gothic metal. The same year, UnSun performed the Black Sun Tour in Poland with Votum and Black River.
