SILENT + Cvlt Nation

"SILENT’s new album Modern Hate is an extremely rich sonic journey that will empower you and make you think. I love the way that this band has Post Punk that speaks to the human condition we are all dealing with right now. Their songs soar while they take you into this sphere of dirgy rhythm that you won’t want to end. SILENT’s vocalist is an instrument unto themselves, fucking grand and full of feral passion. This band knows what they’re doing and how they want to be heard.” — Cvlt Nation

Silent was founded in Mexicali, Baja California in 2015 by Jung Sing and Alex Lara. The band released their first LP, “A Century of Abuse”, on Three One G Records the following year.  Since, they have only released a cover of The Cure’s “Prayers for Rain”, making this long-awaited upcoming sophomore LP their first full-length in five years. Silent has toured both the USA and Mexico, alongside bands like Dead Cross, Retox, Algiers, He Whose Ox is Gored, Author & Punisher, and The Locust. Silent’s music takes on various aural approaches, flowing between hypnotic, gothic and darkwave influence, as well as more fast-paced punk and post-punk, at times even crossing into the realm of catchy, surf-like riffs. Though Rocio chevez’s drumming, Rodo Ibarra’s (Maniqui Lazer) bass, and Alex Lara’s guitar lines vary depending on the track, Jung Sing’s (Maniqui Lazer, All Leather) vocals are a common thread throughout, consistently emitting honeyed grief: soothing but woeful, desperate and yet in no rush, perhaps calling to mind something in the spirit of a Mexicali-reincarnated Nick Cave.

 

Modern Hate will be released April 23rd through Three One G Records. Preorder, here.
