Two years, over fifty shows and several recording sessions, Wakefields These Silent Movies are a band dynamically developing their own Post Hardcore sound and having themselves seen and heard all over the UK and beyond. Mixing influences from both the mainstream, underground, past and present the band offer something diverse in their approach that also favours both writing and playing for the song.
From the same city as several high profile punk rock bands such as Milloy, Pylon, Chopper and Dugong, These Silent Movies stay true to the DIY ethic and have pride in their ability to sustain artistic integrity in their music and everything that is associated with it. The band have completed in April this year a week long north of England tour and with the addition of two new members (Rick & Steve) are on the eve of putting the finishing touches to writing and recording their debut album.
Two new demo songs can be downloaded at http://music.download.com/thesesilentmovies
The band previous played under the name an invitation to an accident and have several recordings that can be found here on download.com at http://music.download.com/aninvitationtoanaccident
here's a review also from download.com..
'DIY punk acts don't usually cop to liking stadium rock, but this UK act sure gets down with some lasertronic '80s-style axes. Whether or not the ode to Rush and Van Halen is done with a wink, it plays winningly against thudding drums and orthodox emo-punk yawping'
