Biography : Silence After Tragedy

Silence After Tragedy are coming out of South Florida ready to crush you and everyone with their unique style of hardcore influenced metal. These 4 men rip through the 5 songs on their debut EP with a technical prowess not found in most local bands. With just a self titled demo and their first official release "1,042 Ways To Not Play Fair", they have already taken the south Florida scene by storm playing shows with bands such as As I Lay Dying, Dead To Fall, The Red Chord, Evergreen Terrace, On Broken Wings, Unearth, Black Cross, Through the Eyes of the Dead, Horse! The Band and countless others.
Already this summer, they embarked on a 2 week tour that hit up the entire east coast, and they will be brought along some friends in the form of south Florida Grind band Shed For You and Orlando metal act the Ballad Reversed as well as a few shows with Lovelost Record's Through the Eyes of the Dead. Shows being booked with big names such as Martyr AD, Haste The Day, Bodies in the Gears of the Appartus, Caliban, I Killed the Prom Queen, and Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza should show you that Silence After Tragedy has no intention of slowing down anytime soon, and their goal to reach as many people as possible through playing live and touring in the future is one that will definitely be reached.
The fast paced metal their debut EP contains is a refreshing change from the tired metal core bands that are dime a dozen these days. Songs like the opener "Remember Your Enemies Face" will make you question if this band is really a newcomer, with its fast paced intro and transition into and slower, more melodic bridge. "Fifteen Love", the third track on the album and one of their heaviest by far, shows a metallic force that only few bands can harness so early in their career.
The closing track "Changing the Tide" ends the album with a fast paced hardcore feel, and features a simple, yet infectious sing along chorus that closes the EP masterfully. Even more impressive then their CD is their live performance, which is where they truly shine with tight, energetic sets, filled with great stage performance. The sing a long during changing the tide is always the highlight of the set. The amount of energy they have never slows down during the duration of their set, and those who witness are left impressed and satisfied with the show they have just seen. Silence After Tragedy are by no means a band that is looking to follow another's lead, rather make their own way in an underground music scene already filled with so many cookie cutter bands.
