Forgotten Silence

Often it is the more remote, less traditional locales where truly original music can be found, and here is a case in point. Hailing from the Czech Republic, Forgotten Silence is really on to something here, with a style truly all their own that changes radically from one album to the next. Reviewing their last three albums, the styles range from the avant-garde death metal of Ka Ba Ach (replete with Hanka's wonderful jazzy mid-range vocals complementing death growls) to the experimental ethno-ambient work that is Bya Bamahe Neem to the clear 70's prog rock influences that are all over Kro Ni Ka. Of these three, Ka Ba Ach is the BNR favorite, a fascinating album that is highly recommended for those seeking an original twist on metal, but Kro Ni Ka is noteworthy as well. This is one of the most adventurous metal bands in existence, truly a hidden gem for those seeking something unique.
