British death/doom metal band My Silent Wake [MSW] has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.com–the world’s largest funding platform for creative projects. The intention is that the forthcoming acoustic album also will be released on vinyl.
The band comments: “Our acoustic album “Preservation Restoration Reconstruction” needs to be heard on good old-fashioned analogue format!”
My Silent Wake‘s latest folk/doom album is soon to be released on CD. But they always favoured the pure analogue sound you get from vinyl. This being the case, they need your help in order to give you the high quality release you deserve!
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.
The band line-up has changed again and the current membership is Ian Arkley, Mark Henry [Also of March of Time], Adam Westlake [Also of Striga] and Rich Alden [also of Penthos]. This line-up will be playing at future gigs. The previous members are all very much in contact with the band, and may return at some point. Many have been involved in recent recordings.
