BIOGRAPHY
Silent began at the end of 2003 in Belgium. Mathieu Burton (guitar) and Pierre Abras (drums) threw themselves into the project with their primary driving force being their shared passion for music. The duo was soon joined by Son Tran-Trang (bass guitar) and Frederic Hyat (guitar) who will take the place of the singer afterward.
After a long period in the shadows, during which they composed and refined their songs, a self-produced EP came to light in September 2005. At the same time, Silent integrated the Progress Booking agency (Brussels) and, from the beginning, with their first performances, proved their professionalism with an incredible energy.
The concerts continued one after the other and Silent made itself known throughout Belgium and even abroad as they performed in Suisse at L’Usine (Geneva). They have performed at such renowned venues as L’Ancienne Belgique in Brussels, opening for AqME and festivals like the Durbuy Rock Festival’s 10th anniversary where Silent shared the stage with, among others, Gojira, AqME, Mypollux, Mass Hysteria, and Dagoba.
During the course of these years the band has witnessed also its first write-ups in the press and its premiers on radio stations such as Pure FM, a national radio, after the Puredemo contest that they won in April 2006.
In September 2006, Son, the bassist, left the band and was replaced by Julien Pire.
Stronger still with their new bassist, Silent go back on stages with opening sets for Mypollux at the Botanique (Brussels) and Stereotypical Working Class in the Magasin 4 (Brussels), as well as playing in festivals such “La Fiesta Du Rock†(with Front 242, Superlux, etc.). And above all, they made their first headlinings.
Desiring to bring their act to greater heights, and in response to the demand of a growing public, Silent entered the studio in July 2007 to record their first album with the help of their sound engineer Johan Milet who has followed the band since its debut.
After many months of waiting and hard work, the surprising “Five a.m.†is now available in a limited edition included bonus cd until the official release in September 2008.
It is difficult to categorize this multi-faceted album. With its oppressive ambiance, sometimes atmospheric, sometimes brutal, the album reflects the image of the band, a real paradox, evolving in a somber universe but fulfilled with deep emotions. It awaits your discovery!
