Suicide Silence

booked all the way up to November already and there is no sign of Australia. Hopefully we can come back around the same time next year, January, February ... This is a very heavy record, heavy as in viewing and emotion but also sound wise. It’s Suicide Silence, you can’t not have a heavy record with those

time to ourselves and it's been a rollercoaster of gigs. In Australia the schedule has been a bit nicer for us so we have had a bit time ... doing their own thing I guess. So it's not really a 'Brighton Sound' or a Brighton influence-based band. MK: We're inspired by the bands we grew
