Mixing new wave with post-punk influences, <a href="spotify:artist:2YnNZW22TMq4Ixf19BDJci" data-name="Silent Runners">Silent Runners</a> (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) made a name for themselves on stage with energetic shows that are both compelling and strangely hypnotizing. Minimalist guitars, deep bass riffs and steady drum beats, going from an almost krautrock-like drive to all out bombastic. All topped with classic synths and a powerful voice, soaked in reverb.
In 2017 <a href="spotify:artist:2YnNZW22TMq4Ixf19BDJci" data-name="Silent Runners">Silent Runners</a> released their debut album <a href="spotify:album:7hlAOdO0yDOTA8GFrpeoAn" data-name="The Directory">The Directory</a>, which reached underground audiences all around the globe. The release was followed by a series of well received shows that cemented the band’s live reputation in the underground post punk scene.
The band’s second record <a href="spotify:album:1OpqK57SMXwV17UyHOEuBS" data-name="Statues & Ornaments">Statues & Ornaments</a> appeared in 2022 and was released at that year’s Wave Gotik Treffen festival. The album showcases a heavier emphasis on post-punk influences and more drum-driven songs, without compromising the iconic mix of synths, guitars and deep vocals the band became known for.
Recently the band toured Dutch clubs together with the legendary <a href="spotify:artist:1wHmR7I0UlF58WFQexCPha" data-name="Clan of Xymox">Clan of Xymox</a>, with more shows to
come in 2025. In the meanwhile, new singles loom on the horizon, while the band is working on a third
full album to release somewhere in coming years.
