Our Take

Silver Snakes have slithered their way back onto the scene with their latest album, "Year Of The Snake". With a title as fitting as a glove on a serpent, this record is a mesmerising mix of brooding vocals, crunchy guitars, and haunting melodies.

The opening track "Electricity" crackles with energy, setting the tone for the rest of the album. Lead singer Alex Estrada's vocals are as smooth as silk, weaving tales of love, loss, and everything in between. The guitars on this track cut through the mix like a razor-sharp fang, adding a sense of urgency and grit to the proceedings.

As the album unfolds, tracks like "Devotion" and "Smokestack" showcase Silver Snakes' ability to seamlessly blend heavy riffs with catchy hooks. The band's chemistry is undeniable, with each member playing off each other like a well-oiled machine.

However, it's on tracks like "Red" and "Glass" that Silver Snakes truly shine. The raw emotion and vulnerability displayed on these songs are a testament to the band's songwriting prowess.

Overall, "Year Of The Snake" is a captivating listen that will have you coming back for more. Silver Snakes have once again proven why they are one of the most exciting bands in the alternative music scene. Don't sleep on this album, or you'll be missing out on one hell of a ride.

About the artist

Silver Snakes

SILVER SNAKES: The LA-based band that roars like a rattlesnake and shimmers like silver. Fronted by the enigmatic Alex Estrada, these rockers have been slithering through the underground music scene for over a decade, leaving a trail of devoted fans in their wake. With a sound that is equal parts gritty and ethereal, SILVER SNAKES effortlessly blend elements of post-hardcore, shoegaze, and even a touch of spaghetti western twang. Their music is a sonic rollercoaster, taking listeners on a journey through dark, brooding landscapes and soaring, anthemic choruses. Their latest album, "Death and the Moon," is a haunting masterpiece that showcases the band at the height of their powers. Estrada's vocals are both menacing and mesmerizing, floating above a wall of distorted guitars and pounding drums. Tracks like "Smokedance" and "Eclipse" hit like a punch to the gut, while "Red" and "Charmer" offer moments of quiet introspection. But don't let their moody sound fool you - SILVER SNAKES are a force to be reckoned with live. Their electrifying performances are a sight to behold, with Estrada prowling the stage like a caged animal and the rest of the band thrashing and wailing in a frenzy of sound and fury. So grab your leather jacket, dust off your cowboy boots, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the twisted world of SILVER SNAKES. Just don't be surprised if you find yourself hypnotized by their spellbinding music long after the final chords have faded into the night.
