Rising Silence

Born in February 2012, Rising Silence is a metal band from Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy).

Drummer Fabry Pinna gathers together some musicians with the purpose of creating a metal band not bound to a specific genre. Roberto Pani, keyoboardist known in a previous musical experience, answers the call.
After an early try to make two guitars fit the project, the events lead the band to choosing a single-guitar lineup and Mattia Ledda becomes the band's guitarist in July 2012.

The voice of Laura Marongiu, who joins the group in December, substantially helps defining the band's own style.
Once the instruments are set, goals become clearer and the tracks start taking shape more quickly, leading to the live debut in March 2013, followed in a brief time by the first place in the local "Rock in Mine" contest, held in June.
The band's first work, an EP titled 'Rising Silence' published in May 2014 and made up of 5 unpublished tracks, is a direct outcome of that success.

After a few turnovers among several musicians who helped developing the early tracks, the entering of Stefania Cugia at bass, at the end of 2013 and right in time to let her leave her mark on the underway EP recordings, gives the band its complete lineup and new goals to pursue.

The sound of Rising Silence is strongly defined by the musical influences of each of its members and by the will to mix as more as possible genres up. The result is a powerful and balanced mix of modern and melodic elements between classic prog and hard-hitting sound.

Listening to Rising Silence immediately calls to mind the guitaring of such bands as Megadeth and Metallica as well as classic hard rock riffing, all of this spiced up with prog-flavoured keyboards and a female voice that recalls Lacuna Coil's style and gives melody a strong leading role.
