Golden Dawn, not to be confused with The Golden Dawn, is an Austrian band formed by Stefan Traunmüller, originally as a one-man black metal project, in 1992. It eventually attracted the attention of two influential Austrian metallists, Ray Wells of Pazuzu and Martin Schirenc of Pungent Stench & Hollenthon, which led to a compilation appearance and eventually a recording contract with Dark Matter Records.

Traunmüller recorded his debut album, The Art Of Dreaming, while still a one-man band, but with session help from Thomas Tannenberger of Abigor and Martin Schirenc.

Dark Matter soon folded, however, and it wasn't until seven years later that the band, now consisting of four members, recorded its next album, Masquerade, with Napalm Records.
