Suicide Silence

There is little doubt in anyone’s minds that SUICIDE SILENCE are one of the frontrunners of the new wave of American metal, a statement further validated as the group won the “Best New Talent” Award at the inaugural Revolver Golden Gods Awards, held at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on April 7th, 2009. The group was also hailed as the event’s breakthrough artist by the LA Times, but make no mistake that this extreme juggernaut is not resting on their laurels and are about to take things up a notch with their highly anticipated sophomore release, “No Time To Bleed”, which was produced by the acclaimed Machine (Lamb Of God, Mindless Self Indulgence, 18 Visions, Clutch…) at his studio, The Machine Shop, in New Jersey. The voracious “No Time To Bleed” provides a substantial wake up call to the masses giving today’s youth an outlet to vent their everyday frustrations. SUICIDE SILENCE can identify with their fans and know what struggles they face in today’s society. The album showcases a more mature band coming into their own, ultimately paving a new path throughout the metal genre unique all unto itself that can’t be replicated. This is the future of extreme music that is brutal, genuine and simply undeniable. Upon their inception in 2004, the Riverside, CA quintet have worked feverishly to carve out their own unique niche within the metal scene and in doing so have developed an undeniable buzz with legions of diehard supporters. With “The Cleansing”, the group delivered one of the most scathing debut albums the metal genre has yet to bear witness to in years, adhering to no preconceived notions and refusing to be pigeonholed into any specific genre. The juxtaposition of each member's talents creates an explosive, yet exciting result that is sure to keep the entire scene on their toes and wondering just what is coming next.
