Album:

Frontiers Records are pleased to announce the release of the new album from Mike LePond's Silent Assassins, "Pawn And Prophecy". LePond is extremely excited about the release of his band's sophomore effort, which he describes as a collection of epic tales told with the power of heavy metal music. The classic headbanging riffs and kick-ass vocals will get your horns and fists in the air. It is an album made for metalheads, by metalheads." Best known as the bassist for progressive metal giants Symphony X, Mike LePond stepped out to front his own project, Mike LePond's Silent Assassins in 2014. The band is set to return in 2018 with the long-awaited follow-up to his highly acclaimed self-titled debut release. The sophomore effort, "Pawn And Prophecy", shows an onslaught of true heavy metal in its purest form. A full hour of headbanding riffs, kick-ass vocals and lyrics telling epic tales drawing influences from the classic metal bands of the 80s to the Viking/folk metal of today. As an example of the range of metal styles here, the title track is a 21 minute opus based on William Shakespeare's "Macbeth", where Mike and company have essentially written a heavy metal soundtrack to this classic tale and features guest appearances from Symphony X bandmates Michael Romeo and Michael Pinella.
