The band combines elements from different metal subgenres and has both male and female vocals - both clean and raspy (and growls). Tacere signed a recording contract with Suomen metalli musiikki (a sublabel of KHY Suomen musiikki Oy) at the very end of 2005. In June 2006 they released first single "I Devour", which was followed with EP "A Voice in the dark". This EP was postponed and released with same name as minialbum (release date: 1. November 2006). And finally in February 2007 was released their first and debut album "Beautiful Darkness".

Beyond silence, a beautiful darkness
Tacere!
The lyrics of Tacere's song Beyond Silence, reveal a theme of finding beauty and peace within the darkness. The line "Beyond silence, a beautiful darkness" suggests that there is something beyond the silence, a darkness that is not only beautiful but also brings a sense of peace or calmness. It could imply the notion of finding light within darkness or how even the darkest moments in our lives can hold a unique kind of beauty.
The repetition of the phrase "Tacere!" is quite interesting, as it is the name of the band. It could be interpreted as a declaration of their presence, power, and intention to make beautiful music amidst the darkness. The song appears to be a message of hope and strength, encouraging people to look beyond the silence and embrace the beauty within the darkness.
