The Silents
23 - 7"
Psychedelic and beat influenced Australian four-piece The Silents are the next band to release a 7" single on The Passport Label. "23" is a brooding song with dizzying harmonies bleeding into tripped-out garage-rock. Dark corners are explored and uncovered, and past, present and future collide head-on. With swinging beats, barking guitars and weaving harmonies, The Silents channel their delusional thoughts into that age-old musical smoke signal, the Pop Song.
The Silents harnessed the isolation of their hometown of Perth to develop their sound as a strong identity. Their debut album "Things To Learn" is currently receiving rave reviews in Australia and the Passport 7" will be their first release in the UK.
The band are set to make their mark internationally with their unique and intensely polarized live sound, in which their own mix of raw, blues-driven rock and roll sits hand-in-hand with hallucinatory, melancholic ballads. They've shared the stage with the likes of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Maximo Park have toured extensively with The Vines.
