COMPLETE BIOGRAPHY [Jan. 2006]

The story behind Enter My Silence dates back to late 1995, when drummer Teemu Hokkanen and bassist Arto Huttunen with guitarists Ville Lapio and Tuomas Jäppinen - who also did vocals - teamed up to form a melodic metal outfit Captivity. The quartet wrote material and rehearsed for a year to record their first three track demo tape in November 1996. It wasn’t meant for wide distribution or media/label contact, but merely for the group of teenagers to gain valuable experience in working in professional studio environment. Some months and a few youth club gigs later, Lapio left the band and Huttunen switched to guitar, leaving the bass players seat open. In 1997, people came and went, but no suitable bassist was found, so the band rehearsed as a trio to record another three track tape in September. This one defined the basis of their sound; catchy, melo-harmonic lead guitar touch and growled vocals backed up by heavy, pounding rhythms.

For the most of 1998, Jäppinen and Huttunen worked on new material even though the band wasn’t able to play live or even rehearse properly due to Hokkanen’s military service. When he was released in September, the three - who at this point changed their name to Enter My Silence - started a brutally intense rehearsing period and headed for Studio Watercastle in Jyväskylä - their hometown in central Finland - to record their first promotional cd “Sophia’s Eye” in December.

    Remote Controlled Scythe is the best, not metalcore sounding like Coordinate.

    they have some metalcore influences, but they are definitely melo-death (and quite technical on the album). also, why do people think of metalcore as a stigma. it isn't! there are plenty of awesome bands playing metalcore who aren't GAY.

    Jep I was referring post RTR In Flames. Darkest Hour is pretty near of this band. Metalcore is also stupid term, since it tries to cover almost all new american metal music nowdays. I don't consider Enter My Silence to be metalcore, but there's lot of bands that aren't on either but still they got that stigma for nothing.

    Just listen to this and some American metalcore bands and you see some similarity. I did and i have to disagree with you, strongly. These guys are definitely a pure breed metal band. They are good, but i find them a little plain at times. At least in comparison to other melodic death metal bands.

    Interestingly, nobody has tagged this as metalcore Lol, thats because their not...;) but I think that statement could be made more easily than of In Flames People who claim that In Flames are metalcore really don't know much about the metal genre. Sure their newer albums are more poppy (and terrible to add), but they are still not metalcore (i assume your referring to in flames post 2001).
