MY SILENT WAKE

My Silent Wake biography
Ian ARKLEY (ex-ASHEN MORTALITY among others) formed MY SILENT WAKE in May 2005. Andi LEE, Jasen WHITE (both ex-ASHEN MORTALITY) and Alan SOUTHORN (THE OTHER WINDOW) joined the band and with this line-up the quartet recorded their self-titled two-track EP in June 2005 in Kewsound, North Somerset. Kate HAMILTON joined just prior to this recording to make MY SILENT WAKE a five-piece band.

The recording of their debut full length album, 'Shadow of Sorrow', took place in November 2005 and was released in 2006, including the two tracks from the EP as bonus material. A double album, 'The Anatomy of Melancholy', was the next release in 2007, while a wrist injury had prevented the band from live performances. Live performances eventually began in 2007 and two promo videos were filmed to promote the second album. The band?s sound engineer, Steve ALLAN, joined on drums during 2007, while Jasen WHITE added vocals.

'A Garland of Tears' was recorded in March 2008 and is the first not to include Alan SOUTHORN on bass. A split album, 'Black Lights and Silent Roads', was released with The Drowning in 2010, a year that also saw the release of the band?s fourth full length album, 'IV Et Lux Perpetua'. The last change of line-up has been the addition of TANK (SEVENTH ANGEL) for the 9-date European tour at the end of 2010.

The band's sound ranges from doom, slow death metal to post/experimental metal and, at times, resembles to MY DYING BRIDE.
