Beyond Dawn is a Norwegian avant-garde metal band turned electropop composed of Espen Ingierd, Petter Haavik, Tore Gjedrem, and Einar Sjursø.
In 1995, Beyond Dawn released their critically acclaimed full-length debut Pity Love on Candlelight Records.
Beyond Dawn eventually resumed work on the would-be 1996 album and, after adding additional material and overdubs, released In Reverie in 1999 on Eibon Records, which would also be reissued in 2005 with two bonus tracks.
During the latter half of 1999, they released Electric Sulking Machine on the Peaceville label, which soon became a favorite amongst fans and remains sought after due to its limited pressing.
Some time later, several tracks from Frysh were remixed by various electronic and EBM artists and released in the form of the double LP We're Down with Species of Any Kind in 2005.
