Agvirre announce debut EP ‘Silence’
AGVIRRE have announced their debut EP!
Titled Silence, the upcoming EP from the Manchester-based post black metal outfit is scheduled to be released in January next year. The band is comprised of veteran musicians, journalists, gig promoters and designers.
The upcoming EP is an intense and chaotic insight into the struggles of living with mental illness, told through their lengthy songs that encompass elements of black metal, shoegaze, post-metal, noise and electronic music. The band perform raging blackened riffs enhanced with soaring strings and haunting synths, with experimental flourishes as well as a keen ear for strong melodies. Lyrically the album explores cathartic and personal themes surrounding anxiety, depression, grief, loss, abuse and self-worth. AGVIRRE went as far to interview people about their own struggles with mental illness, with their responses being used as spoken word samples that embellish these recordings.
