Last weekend we announced the departure of My Silent Wake‘s drummer Mark Henry. Earlier today frontman Ian Arkley reported the following:
‘Gareth Arlett [Control the Storm/Amputated] will be providing drums at Doom Over London and possibly for future gigs.’
The band’s latest album “Silent Under Midnight” has been released in June via Bombworks Records.
My Silent Wake‘s roots lie in the death/doom band Ashen Mortality. Ashen Mortality were formed in the early 90′s in Halesowen, West Midlands [UK] and were active for a further 11 years. When the band split in 2005, three of the members went on to form MSW.The band was formed in the spring of 2005 in Weston-Super-Mare in North Somerset. Initially the band was created by Ashen Mortality co-founder Ian Arkley with other ex Ashen Mortality members. Nowadays the band line-up has changed again and the current membership is Ian Arkley, Adam Westlake [also of Striga] and Rich Alden [also of Penthos].
Recently we had the opportunity to do an interview with My Silent Wake. If you missed it, click here. And our album review for ‘Silver Under Midnight’ can be found here.
