156/Silence Brings Chaotic Metal Fury to El Rey Theater

Jagged. Abrasive. Chaotic. Just a few words I would use to describe 156/Silence in the most simplistic way. This is a band that upon first glance, you wouldn't think twice about. But when the drums kick in and the guitars vibrate through the air, you know you're in for a storm. Though a visually unassuming group, 156/Silence will leave you questioning how you hadn't heard of them sooner. The band balances that sharp edge of old-school metal influences while clearly incorporating today's metalcore genre in their own way. Trust that 156/Silence is anything but silent.
