A Darkness Descends is the second studio album by the Indian death metal band Demonic Resurrection.

The group was reformed in 2003 with a new-lineup consisting of Husain Bandukwala (bass), Mephisto (keyboards), JP (drums) and the Demonstealer (vocals, guitars).

The album also gave birth to Demonstealer Records, an independent extreme metal record label launched by the Demonstealer, which would go on to release albums of all the top Indian metal bands.

Review website SputnikMusic said "Demonic Resurrection balances the heaviness with the melody at an equal pace, never overpowering the other.

Heavy metal webzine Metal Storm said "each instrument sound quite good, and nothing is buried in the mix, like the amazing atmosphere that the keyboards create in "The Summoning", with a lousy production that detail would have gone bad.
