Perth’s Metal Powerhouse Silent Knight are charging into 2021 with the release of their Power-Metal fuelled rendition of ‘Bad Romance‘ originally performed by Lady Gaga! This fearless track introduces itself with the widely known and loved vocal melody accompanied by tastefully harmonised guitars before the listener is projectiled into a maelstrom of Silent Knight’s signature infusion of European Metal and Speed Metal. Jam-packed with rhythmically sophisticated guitarwork, methodically curated lead lines and superbly tight drum and bass grooves, this composition will have your fist pumping in no time!
Punctuating the raw intensity are breaths of stripped-back verses showcasing Dan Brittain’s second to none vocal delivery. Chorus’s herald an impeccable contrast to the rest of the track showcasing more of Brittian’s range with hook-laden vocals that cut through the heaviness of the instrumentation. The crescendo is a heavy onslaught of sweep-picked guitars followed by a fluid guitar solo incorporating the masterful use of a Floyd Rose. Throughout the entirety of the track, Silent Knight masterfully showcase Iron Maiden-esque guitar, drum, and bass patterns throughout each passage and anthemic choruses reminiscent of Children of Bodom and Helloween.
Following a succession of highly acclaimed releases, the band toured nationally and internationally with heavyweights such as Dragonforce, Korpiklaani, Turilli Lione Rhapsody, Helloween,David Ellefson, Zakk Wylde’s Black Label Society as well as securing slots at festivals such as Hammersonic Festival, Indonesia and Headbangers Open Air Festival, Germany. Taking the Australian scene by a storm Silent Knight are showing no signs of slowing down!
