Biography
The Silence Kit is a Philly post-punk band that plays textured, dark, indie rock. Based in New Jersey and Philadelphia, and inspired in equal parts by post punk, shoegaze, neo-psychedelia, avant-garde and indie rock, the band was started by singer/guitarist Patrick McCay back in 2002 as a solo recording project, eventually culminating in the first album “In Regulated Measure” (2006).
“A Strange Labor” was released in Spring of 2008, and “Dislocations” in 2010, both by Break Even Records and Azteca Records and both received positive reviews from a great variety of press, with the Philadelphia City Paper calling “Dislocations” The Silence Kit’s “boldest, most cohesive statement so far.” The Silence Kit released two EPs simultaneously on April 1st 2011, both as free downloads and each release an exploration of a distinct side of the band’s sound. “The Stairs,” consisting of 4 concise indie rock songs, and “In Parts,” a darker, edgier affair entirely, with a focus on capturing the band’s live energy.
Several lineups have seen the band gradually honing their sound through the years. The core lineup of McCay, bass player Don Ocava, and drummer Jay Dyer have been playing together since 2007.
Comparisons to bands like The Cure, Joy Division, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and The Psychedelic Furs hint at The Silence Kit’s melodic, moody sound.

С артиклем - группа из США(вроде из США). Без артикля - группа из России. Что парадоксально, то, что играют обе команды схожую музыку.
