DarkSide VocalDarkside is a Fortaleza, Ceará based Heavy Metal band created in 1991, the opening line up comprising vocalist Aurelio, guitarists Tales Groo and Boi, bassist Rodrigo and drummer Beah. This unit crafted the 1991 demo Fragments Of Time. The band switched rhythm section for the follow up 1993 session Gates To Madness, drafting bassist Pluto and drummer Dudu. Darkside evolved further in 1996 with the recruitment of bass player Alexandre Hawly and drummer H.J.
1997 had the band down to just Aurelio and Groo as founders, this pair being bolstered by second guitarist Fabricio, bassist Ramiro and drummer Paulo Andre. However, in 1998 Romulo took over lead vocals as the band switched title to Heritage. With the return of Aurelio in 2000 they would revert back to Darkside.2001 found the group undergoing its most drastic change of personnel to date, with only Groo surviving. New blood would be injected for recording of the Eclipsed Soul demo by singer Daniel Monge, drummer Rodrigo Magnani, guitarist Joe Wilson and bassist Dudu Magnani (who was replaced by Bruno Tosco in 2004). After the departure of Joe Wilson in 2005, Darkside is now acting as a quartet.Guitarist Paulo Bessa joined the band in late 2007. 2008, Darkside is now entering studio to record a new EP.
