Hailed by Metal Hammer magazine as ‘the trance-metal juggernaught the world has been waiting for’ and earning the title of Kerrang! Radio’s top unsigned band in April 2008, British septet Silent Descent are well-established as a rising force in the British metal scene. ‘Duplicity’, the band’s critically acclaimed 2008 release came as a breath of fresh air to listeners and has rapidly gained popularity in several countries worldwide. With the ethos of an unsigned band, the self-produced album engineered by guitarist Tom Callahan presents both the massive sound of a modern metal record and the raw, edgy excitement of a band entering unchartered territory. The innovation displayed on their album is only equalled by their inimitable live performance. With strobes, lasers and sheer energy, Silent Descent provide a show that’s not only intense and gripping, but also unforgettable. After rave reviews, including Powerplay Magazine’s 9/10 in their top releases section, Silent Descent continue to go from strength to strength. Consistantly breaking boundaries and pushing limits, they are determined to re-establish what constitutes a great metal band. Their current set of releases include: Silent Descent (EP, 2005), Duplicity (2008) Current members are: Tom Watling (Vocals), Tom Callahan (Guitar, Backing Vocals), Paul Hurrell (Keyboards, Synth, Backing Vocals), Kipster (DJ, Samples), Jaco (Guitar), Sniffles (Bass), Dave Carter (Drums) |
