After a first self-produced album Whisperwood (2003), she next recorded an album in New York called Fairytale, (April 2007 on the T?t ou tard label), with the participation of Jeff Pevar, Ben Wisch, Sean Pelton, Fran?ois Moutin and the contribution of some lyrics by J?r?me Attal. Her third album ?Once, twice? was released September 2011.

2. Constance are also a Glasgow-based post-hardcore metal band.

" ?I felt like I was being attacked by the band.?

Intellectual psychopaths, charitable degenerates, humble monsters.

Constance are a young, violent, and hungry metal band from Glasgow, Scotland.

Their music takes influence from punk, metal, hardcore, trance, and ambient, leaving venues trembling and audiences bleeding.

?If you climb that, I'm shutting the whole gig down.?

Constance play like every gig is their first and last, breaking hearts, minds, and bones. They don't have fans so much as their victims have Stockholm syndrome.

You might not like us, but come to a show and you will fucking remember us."

3. Constance was a Brisbane, Australia-based band that blended metal and rock sounds. Originally started in 2004 after the demise of former indie/rock project Where You Live, Dale J. Williams (vocals) and Sam Alcock (guitar) started work on a studio project with more metal influence than their previous bands, and Constance was born. Later on that year, this studio project became a full-fledged band with the addition of Rob Schlegel (bass) and Kristofer Maher (drums) - this version of the band played numerous shows across the Brisbane area before going on hiatus in November of 2005. They returned as a five-piece band in mid-2006, with Dale dropping his guitar duties, Rob switching from bass to guitar, and with the integration of a new rhythm section consisting of Leo Campbell (bass) and James Geekie (Drums) after the departure of Maher earlier in the year. This incarnation of the band never played any shows and it was around this time that Constance disbanded due to Williams' departure.

Former members of Constance are now active in these bands:

Dale: Vyrion
Sam: Defamer
Geeks: Defamer, Shellfin
Leo & Rob: A German Spectacle

Constance's songs usually range from six to ten minutes in length and are heavily influenced by artists such as Killswitch Engage, Opeth, Arch Enemy, The Juliana Theory and Foo Fighters.
