Breaking The Silence (CD)

Into the Unknown released their first album, quot;Out of the Shadowsquot; in 2017, and followed it up with a digital only mini album of covers, entitled quot;The Other Side of the Wallquot;, but with only three members vocalist Lucie Hölzlová, Guitarist Ryan Atkins and bassist/producer Rupert Withers, they were limited when it came to showcasing the music live. A few acoustic sets were performed (the first in front of a crowd of 2000 in an open air venue), however the band really wanted to perform the songs as they intended them, full on and fired up! Fast forward to June 2019, and they are pleased to announce new blood in the band, namely James Milner on rhythm guitar, and Mike Bennett on drums. This new line up was revealed with the release of their version of the Gary Moore/Phil Lynott classic song, quot;Out In The Fieldsquot;. Thus plans are now afoot to tour in the not too distant future. The new album, quot;Breaking the Silencequot; is an evolution from their previous album, written by Lucie, Ryan and Rupert, it moves further into the symphonic rock arena that was hinted at in quot;Out of The Shadowsquot;. Once more they decided to try and create a diverse collection of songs, with what they are proud to admit many critics have stated is their distinctive sound. From the heavy rocking quot;Pandora's Boxquot; that opens the album, through the celtic influenced quot;Heroes and Victimsquot; to the piano ballad quot;You Can't Have Love Without The Painquot; the album is an hours worth of music, written from the heart. Known for their cover recordings, the band don't disappoint with their rocked up version of Howard Jones' 80s pop hit quot;What Is Love?quot;. Lucie's vocals pour feeling into the performance, and Ryan's guitar work compliments them with heartfelt solos. Songs such as quot;Brokenquot;, quot;I've Had Enoughquot; and quot;Back In Timequot; highlight emotional turmoil, whilst quot;Are You Ready?quot; and quot;Live Your Lifequot; are out and out rock songs, destined to be live favourites.
