//about//
S I L E N is a 3-piece progressive metal band based in Kent. Members Paul, Dean and Frazer got together in 2020 with a desire to bring back the raw and dissonant sound of early 2000's progressive metal.
The band take inspiration from the characteristics of nature that can instil both awe and despair. With that, their sound has been compared to early Mastodon and early Tool by combining crushing heavy sections, light melodies and enigmatic time signatures.
Silen debuted at the 2022 Metal 2 The Masses competition resulting in a personal invitation from Chief Organiser, Simon Hall to perform on the New Blood Stage at Bloodstock Open Air Festival alongside the UK's best up-and-coming metal bands.
This followed the release of their debut self-titled EP and marked the beginning of their pursuit to reintroduce metal fans to a progressive metal sound that is contemporary but nostalgic.
