Swedish post-punk outfit\u00a0Then Comes Silence<\/a><\/strong>, has announced they will release their new single,\u00a0\u2018Ride or Die\u2019<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0on March 1. Ahead of that, they share\u00a0the first taste of their seventh album\u00a0\u2018Trickery\u2019<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band recently signed to Metropolis Records<\/strong><\/a> for the release of this record, which celebrates friendship, unity and belonging to a group – your tribe. The first single, \u2018Ride or Die\u2019<\/strong><\/a>, which has already reached #3 in Germany’s authoritative DAC Charts<\/strong>, will be released on March 1.<\/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

‘Trickery’ follows their 2022 \u00a0album\u00a0‘Hunger’<\/strong>, released via Nexilis Records \/ Schubert Music (Europe) and Metropolis Records (North America). After dual record deals for the past few albums, Then Comes Silence has signed exclusively with Metropolis Records for this album.<\/p>\n\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\u00a0J\u00f6rgen Wall (Jay-Jay Johanson, The Hellacopters)\u00a0<\/strong>over three days at Stockholm’s\u00a0Kapsylen Studio\u00a0<\/strong>and mixed by\u00a0Tom van Heesch (Rammstein, Apocalyptica, Backyard Babies)<\/strong>, this album was mastered by\u00a0Svante Forsb\u00e4ck \/ Chartmakers\u00a0(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\u00a0eponymous album<\/strong>\u00a0in 2012, Then Comes Silence put out two more albums before releasing\u00a0‘Blood’<\/strong>\u00a0via\u00a0Nuclear Blast\u00a0<\/strong>in 2016. Their subsequent\u00a0‘Machine’ album<\/strong>\u00a0was jointly released via\u00a0Oblivion\/SPV\u00a0<\/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

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

As of March 1, ‘Ride or Die’ will be unleashed\u00a0digitally everywhere<\/strong>, including\u00a0Apple Music<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>Spotify<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Bandcamp<\/strong><\/a>. The full ‘Trickery’ album will be released on\u00a0vinyl and CD<\/strong>, as well as\u00a0digitally<\/strong>, on April 5.
