The band plays melodic and handmade symphonic metal which attracts with extraordinary instruments. The Silent Revenants are mixing several styles of metal and add orchestral parts as well as folk elements.
The band was founded in 2012. First of all it was five-headed and very typical metal/rock line up. At the foundation was clear where the musical journey should go: orchestral melodies should meet crunchy guitars, groovy drums and a unique and powerful voice. All band members brought extensive musical experience into the project. So the first songs were written quickly.
After the first studio recording (an EP called "Every Deam") and several successful gigs Julian (guitars, songwriting and composing) decided to expand their musical possibilities. So Celina with her violin joined the band and defined and enriched the sound of the band. After a few personal changes and some short breaks Jannik finally joined the band and brought the unique and mind blowing sound of a great highland pipe and some Irish whistles into the songs of Silent Revenants. The band played further gigs and got an overwhelming positive feedback.
At the end of 2016 the band decided to start a crowdfunding campaign to fund their first album. The campaign was a complete success and the band started to record their first Album "Walk with Fire" which is currently available on digital platforms and as CD.
The "Silent Revenants" were indeed inspired from bands like Nightwish, Metallica, or Epica but they very quickly found and perfected their own, completely new and innovative sound. There was a mixture of hard as well as "groovy" drums, driving guitars and orchestral arrangements and folk elements. Add to that the powerful voice of a singer and the recipe for a completely new rock / metal was finished.
This is the (still) quite short but remarkable history of "Silent Revenants"

Horizons
Silent Revenants Lyrics

Don't think too much, go to work, and face the daily grind.
You're better off if you are ignorant and blind.
Harbingers of hate are lurking all around
While the shadow kings are standing on solid marble ground
This shouldn't be our fate there's so much more to see
Cause we're forged in the fires of infinity

New horizons are what we're longing for
In search of sweet pain to feel alive once more
Like the old-fashioned rebels we're untamed and bold.

There's still so much untold (if we weren't too numb and cold.)

On the ruins of utopia, we build up twisted fantasies
A place where love and dreams became cold commodities
Pick your poison on the fair of ideology.
Only the fools believe in the end of history.
This shouldn't be our fate there's so much more to see
Cause we're forged in the fires of infinity

New horizons are what we're longing for
In search of sweet pain to feel alive once more
Like the old-fashioned rebels we're untamed and bold.
There's still so much untold (if we weren't too numb and cold.)

New horizons are what we're longing for
In search of sweet pain to feel alive once more
Like the old-fashioned rebels we're untamed and bold.
There's still so much untold (if we weren't too numb and cold.)
New horizons are what we're longing for
In search of sweet pain to feel alive once more
Like the old-fashioned rebels we're untamed and bold.
There's still so much untold (if we weren't too numb and cold.)
