WANE formed in December 2012 as Valles Caldera. Original members Jimmy (vocals), Dan (guitar) and Steve (drums) began writing the first versions of tracks that would appear on the bands debut album 5 years later. A number of line up changes led to the permanent appointment of Tom (guitar) but the loss of drummer Steve due to medical reasons in 2014.

As the majority of the album was written and the right drummer proving hard to find, the remainder of the band decided to write the last couple of tracks without securing new members. Jimmy performed drumming duties (poorly) and the band recorded drum tracks for the album in 2015 using a session drummer. In 2016 the band hit the studio to record the rest of the instruments and vocals and the mixing/ mastering took place over 2017. The band, limited severely by finances and time, marriages, careers and childbirths, took a long time to get the record ready to release. WANE's motivation was only ever to write an album they were proud of, however long that took. In fact much of the harmonies, guitar layers and synth/ noise elements were written in the recording studio with producer Ben (Bong Cauldron).

New drummer Paul was recruited in June 2017 and the band amended their name to WANE and released their debut album 'Terrastasis' in February 2018 in digital format through Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer and Google Play.

Terrastasis is an 80 minute concept album, based on a fictional apocalypse where the Earth slows on its axis until it's rotation ceases forever. It tells the story of the natural and human consequences, the end of the world as we know it and the eventual birth of a new epoch after the demise of mankind. It was inspired by a National Geographic documentary on the same concept.

WANE are now excited to begin work on new material for their second album and will look to play some live shows in 2018
