"LISTEN: …Silenze’s “Take This Life”"

Perhaps one doesn’t expect a lot of queer-ish hard rock from Milwaukee, but fortunately …Silenze fills that gap (and yes, the ellipses is part of the band name). Out guitarist Spencer Fellner sent me this new track for the band’s upcoming album. He and fellow out member Roxanne Jeske lead the guitar onslaught as drummer Sky Byrd does vocal duty on this track. Byrd and bassist Bud Letendre would be the non-gay part of the band.

I was surprised how mellowed out the track is, but in very good ways. I had heard their 2010 album The Sound of One Hand Clapping which showed potential but still with a bit of greenness in their drive to rock godliness. Here they’ve developed a patience in their delivery of “Take This Life” that in Clapping may have just sounded slow. It has that rawness of an unsigned band but it’s an impressive and mature leap this time around. - The Dallas Voice, Rich Lopez

"RICH’S MIXTAPE: POST-PRIDE EDITION"

“Hell With You” – …Silenze: These queer-centric metalheads don’t take crap. Declaring I’m someone unlike you, the band forgets the fuzzy-wuzzies and takes a stand. - Dallas Voice, Rich Lopez
