Founded by former members of Zeboiim and Summernight Conflict in fall 2005 OF QUIET WALLS started to work with enthusiasm on their very own idea of Hardcore, Metalcore, Chaos (call it what you want!!). The songs created in the following year reveal the bands' eagerness and passion, which all of the members put into them. They testify that OF QUIET WALLS are not willing to follow standardized ways but create their own structures. The first shows in early summer 2006 proved that this concept was working.
The energy of the created songs had been amplified at a high rate with the six guys' live-show. At their concerts OF QUIET WALLS could really play out all their advantages. The two singers (Erik, Rick) are perfectly complementing each other and cover a wide range of vocal expression and always keep some space for the melody that always has a place in OF QUIET WALLS' music. The two guitar players (Kay, Stefan) are playing a creative, mathematical-chaotic, sometimes massive style and always try to push their skills forward. The base everything relies on are Marco (drums) and Jonas (bass). They build up the framework on which OF QUIET WALLS are safely heading forward to go different ways. In 2007 Eric joined the band to add some samples, electronic sound and background vocals so that the guys now are creating a sound that is far away from the German standards of Metalcore.
In summer 2006 the band decided to record the songs they had been written until there in a D.I.Y. homerecording process. To put the energetic atmosphere of the live shows onto disk has been a harder task than the guys thought in the beginning but in November 2006 OF QUIET WALLS could finish their first EP "DOPE DISCO & THE HETERO ELEPHANT" to use them for promotional purposes and give to anyone who is interested in the band's sound.
Without even going on a search for record labels, Shark Men Records and Village Kids Records had been interested in the band rightaway. So they worked together and OF QUIET WALLS became part of their families. This coalition finally created the album "dope disco and the hetero elephant" to be sold as their first release. After an amazing record release party on June 6th 2007 the album sold very well and had been reviewed in many music magazines that are published all over the world.
But this is only the beginning. There are a lot of shows to be played, the whole euro-tour-thing is not forgotten and new songs slowly fight their way into the members' brains. OF QUIET WALLS - will be destroying your town!!!
