Was passiert wenn sich Musiker aus Malaysia und Italien zusammentun? Es entsteht eine neue Band namens SILENT ANGEL, die ihren Sound irgendwo in der Schnittmenge von Power Metal und Symphonic angesiedelt haben und mit Claudia Beltrame und Gracie Shona gleich über zwei Sängerinnen verfügen.
Jetzt erscheint die erste Single `Against The Tides` , die gleichzeitig auch das „Unyielding, Unrelenting“ Debütalbum für November ankündigt.
Gitarrist Eric “StormBlade” Poon sagt über den Track
“This tune was one of the last songs I wrote for the record. It was written during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic that brought the world to its knees back in 2020 – 2022 and subsequently the invasion of Ukraine. I was toying around with the riff and rhythm structure for quite some time. Seeing friends across the world, family and relatives fall victim to the effects of the pandemic drove me to pen the lyrics as a means to inspire any and everyone afflicted to stand strong and persevere. Never to give up in the face of insurmountable odds.“

Lyrics:
All alone in shadows, within twilight’s veil,
Obscured from sight, damnation dwells,
Silence all round, fear gripping tight,
Steel our souls for this dark embrace
At Mercy’s end, walls are crashing in,
Abandon all hope, faith and pleas
Seeking salvation in eternity
A million voices cry in vain
This Ashen dawn,
Blazing bright
Guarding futures and dreams
Gathering of might
For the fight,
Stand united against the tides,
Enduring solitude,
Find that strength to carry on
Bearing the pain of the world
Held in the thrall of the crimson crown,
Mankind pays the tithe with life
Scars and wounds, this endless tragedy
Etched in the haze of time and memory
Seeking salvation in eternity
A million voices cry in vain
This Ashen dawn,
Blazing bright
Guarding futures and dreams
Gathering of might
For the fight,
Stand united against the tides,
Enduring solitude,
Find that strength to carry on
Bearing the pain of the world
This Ashen dawn,
Blazing bright
Guarding our futures and dreams
Gathering of might
For the fight,
Stand united against the tides,
Unite as one, our voices be,
Unravel fate and destiny,
Holding out, for a brand new day
Yearn to be running free
Enduring solitude,
Find that will to carry on
Bearing the pain
Bearing the scars
Bearing the fate
of the world
