“Metropolis Records is thrilled to announce the return of Then Comes Silence.  The new album \u201cTrickery\u201d will be the band\u2019s first worldwide release with us. It\u2019s a fantastic album and we are excited to get to share it with you. It\u2019s a refinement of the band\u2019s signature sound, a focused distillation of everything TCS has released to date. Metropolis will be releasing the first single from the record, \u2018Ride or Die\u2019 on March 1st,” says Jim Smith<\/strong> of Metropolis Records<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hailing from Stockholm, Then Comes Silence was founded by\u00a0Alex Svenson\u00a0<\/strong>in 2012, originally inspired by frequent touring with A Place To Bury Strangers and an attraction to horror and the occult. Today he is joined by drummer\u00a0Jonas Fransson<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Hugo Zombie<\/strong>\u00a0(Los Carniceros del Norte<\/strong>) on guitar.<\/p>\n\n\n

“For this forthcoming album ‘Trickery’, we had a change of deal and went full member of the Metropolis Records family. We are ready to embrace the crowd again with our heart and can’t wait to get the album out,” says frontman Alex Svenson<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recorded by J\u00f6rgen Wall (Jay-Jay Johanson, The Hellacopters) <\/strong>over three days at Stockholm’s Kapsylen Studio <\/strong>and mixed by Tom van Heesch (Rammstein, Apocalyptica, Backyard Babies)<\/strong>, this album was mastered by Svante Forsb\u00e4ck \/ Chartmakers (Rammstein, Amaranthe, Ville Valo, The Rasmus, Apocalyptica)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These sessions capture the heart and essence of rock. With electronic elements being essential to the new recordings, ‘Trickery’ is also a salute to punk music, to which Then Comes Silence traces their roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After debuting with their eponymous album<\/strong> in 2012, Then Comes Silence put out two more albums before releasing ‘Blood’<\/strong> via Nuclear Blast <\/strong>in 2016. Their subsequent ‘Machine’ album<\/strong> was jointly released via Oblivion\/SPV <\/strong>and Metropolis Records in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then Comes Silence unexpectedly became a three-piece just ahead of their 2022 US tour, then setting out to answer the question “could they continue with only three members”? Proving to work well, the band transformed into a trio, their metamorphosis leading to a different way of creating music and performing live.<\/p>\n\n\n

Then Comes Silence has toured and played live with The Fields of the Nephilim, The Chameleons, A Place To Bury Strangers<\/strong> and most recently with The Bellwether Syndicate <\/strong>and Vision Video<\/strong>. With many festivals to their name, highlights include M’era Luna, Wave Gotik Treffen, Amphi Festival, Castle Party and W-Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ‘Ride or Die’ single will be unleashed digitally everywhere <\/strong>on March 1. The full ‘Trickery’ album will be released on vinyl and CD<\/strong>, as well as digitally<\/strong>, on April 5. In March and April, Then Comes Silence will be touring North America extensively with Vision Video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
