SILENCE IS SAFETY

About Me

It would be trendy to compare Silence is Safety to other bands, as it's trendy to say you can't compare the group's music to that of other artists. Trends mean nothing. Call us Garbage, No Doubt, Blondie, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Hole, and just about any other female-fronted band of the indy or punk genre. We're an indy DIY band with a pop-punk and new-wave guitar player. We have a lot of fun, kick a lot of ass, and encourage our audience to do the same. Some might say our music doesn't make any relevant statement or further social discourse in a meaningful way. Some may even say our lyrics speak to feminist issues that have become outdated and irrelevant to those people we say fuck off and write a song yourself. We were right silence would have been safer.
