Hailing from Asuza, California, atmospheric progressive metalcore powerhouse Silent Planet have today announced their signing with their new label home, Pure Noise Records. In celebration, the band has announced their new album "Infinite Sleep", out on January 29, 2027 and released their first single from the forthcoming full-length "fangs!!" featuring Jacob Charlton of Thornhill. "Infinite Sleep" will be the quartet's latest body of original music since 2023's critically acclaimed album 'SUPERBLOOM'. When asked about the inspiration behind "fangs!!", vocalist Garrett Russell shared:
"We hold the tools to extinction like holy books against our chests, believing our salvation lays inside the threat of global annihilation. A society of “perverts who are secretly horny for the apocalypse” we built temples to our inevitable undoing - and we all sleep soundly inside this dread machine. But if you could see your city from a bird’s eye view… you’d see the bite marks stippling streets and poisoning what’s left of waterways. You see the remnants, but you can only feel the “fangs!!”
I’ve had this recurring dream for quite some time where I arrive at a skyscraper rooftop where I lock eyes with a woman I’ve never met in real life. She is about to jump. And this is where the dream splits - sometimes I narrowly miss her hand and watch her fall placid to the ground, resigned to her fate. But sometimes I catch her hand, and we fall together, she always turns to me and whispers something personal, then we hit the ground and I wake up.
Early this year, as we were writing this album, the war broke out and the dream had this new element: A nuclear bomb falling on the city. It’s as though the bomb distracted her from her misery, and we would watch it together. Then, knowing that our doom was inevitable, we would jump. But this falling felt more akin to flying, as though our final moments were a choice of freedom in this strange world that hoards the keys to its own annihilation."
Silent Planet are currently trekking across the US along with Saosin, Like Moths To Flames, and Save Us through early December.
