Bio:
Do you remember the fear you felt when you first saw The Exorcist? Or the twisted beauty of Hellraiser? Silver Bullet brings all this to heavy metal with roaring riffs, beautiful melodies and bombastic orchestrations.The story of Silver Bullet began in 2008, in a form of Dirge Eternal. The band quickly found its niche in horror movies and started writing all the lyrics based on those gloryful gems. Few demos were made and the positive feedback assured the band that they were on the right track. But the final push was when Hannes Horma(ex-Turisas) joined the band. With Hannes they began defining their own style into more riff-oriented yet orchestral metal. It was quite clear from the beginning that live shows would be made with stage actors to support the dramatic elements of the music. Zombie nurses, possessed little girl, even a lunatic with a chainsaw was included in their horror metal show.With the addition of Nils Nordling(ex-Dreamtale) on vocals, Silver Bullet is stronger than ever. And they are ready to unleash their debut album "Screamworks" to audiences all over the world. Screamworks was recorded at Sound Supreme Studios with Janne Saksa and mastered at Chartmakers.
Album:
Born from the ashes of DIRGE ETERNAL, SILVER BULLET began their story in 2008, composing a few demos. The addition of Hannes Horma (ex-TURISAS) to the band line up was what SILVER BULLET needed to begin truly defining their own style into more riff-oriented and orchestral melodies. The latest addition of Nils Nordling (ex-DREAMTALE) on vocals, further established the style of the band. The band writes symphonic metal with a touch of horror movies background. “Screamworks” was recorded at Sound Supreme Studios with Janne Saksa and mastered at Chartmakers. The album was released via 7hard.The album is a perfect representation of symphonic metal. It is fun and light to listen to. The songs flow seamlessly, with an incredible punchy production. It really has nothing to envy, to the production of albums of the biggest bands out there, it is perfectly recorded and mixed with a great balance between instruments and vocals.The orchestral parts and lyrical choruses are fitting in every single moment of the songs, without being overdone, they create echoing drama and atmosphere.“Tormentor” begins with a slow down tempo riffing. It’s like a repeating doomy litany. But it all changes once we get to the middle of the song. Here the music launches itself into fast Speed Metal, with a hammering chorus to complete these powerful variations of sound.“The Resurrected” slowly introduce itself with a few piano notes, to then enter into a realm of beautiful riffs, pressing and commanding power-chords, which remind us of an unstoppable horse, launched in an irresistible gallop.“Soul Apart” changes the game, and starts with Death Metal growls; the keyboards here are masterful and take the prime spot. The solo riffs then start, and it is one of the best guitar parts of the whole album.The album is quite interesting, even if it doesn’t bring us anything new in the genre. The harmonious guitars riffing, the keyboards melodies, and the whole drama feeling are definitely what make this album a great listen. Only weakness perhaps, is the vocals that at times seems to not be so interlaced with the rest of the composition. But the sound is solid and captivating, definitely a great listen.
