Biography

Based in Richmond, Virginia, The Silent Type is a force to be reckoned with. They began as a solo project of oldest band member Nathan Altice, with a shuffling lineup up until 2002, when Amber Blankenship (piano/violin/vocals), Billy Mutter (bass), and Jared Laine (drums) joined the band. Since then, they have added Nathan to the band, and Blankenship appears to have left. They have one full-length (Of Writing / Of Violence) and a split with Gregor Samsa.

The Silent Type’s music has roots in shoegaze and post-rock.

    I found their album Of Writing/Of Violence at a 2 dollar bargain bin at Real Groovy in NZ. Best find of my life - this album was certainly worth much more than what I paid.

    i thought they would be a bit more post-rock given the gregor samsa split
