Silent Motive

sure to give stagnance a good, hard kick in the face

If music isn’t live, it may as well be dead. Brisbane’s Silent Motive swear by this mantra on-stage before hurling it into the recording studio. Formed in 2008, the trio have spent the last two years finding a sound that captures the brute force of alternative rock and cages it with bright and punchy pop licks.

Ben Speight (guitar, vocals), Daniel Sergiacomi (bass) and Scott Thompson (drums) have managed to find the balance between frenetic energy and thick, solid riffs that hit like a runaway freight train. Their latest EP, Rising Sun, is a snapshot of the band’s electric live feel, framed by their trademark precision and well-measured experimentation. Recorded in renowned Gold Coast studio Recording Oasis with engineer Jake Walsh and mastered by Dave Neil of Modern Mastering (Powderfinger, The Butterfly Effect), Rising Sun has a decidedly polished gleam to it.

Restless and dynamic, the boys from Silent Motive are sure to give stagnance a good, hard kick in the face.
