Demo for the Evelyn's War project. Recorded 2021.

"Sad song falls to pieces,
Dangerous lovers take their toll on meekness.
Point the bone, spit poison,
Narcissistic cannibal, Hyaena,
Language so de-evolved."

No Noble Reign

A Blow Upon A Bruise

A sneak peak at Etienne de Silhouette's latest adventure.

A Necessary Song (Sneak Peak)

Like the music they make, the history of Ētienne de Silhouette is a slow burn, and has been woven together from many threads. Originating as a solo outlet for guitarist Matthew Tāmati Scott, the band has evolved over the past four years as he’s brought in other veterans of New Zealand’s underground music scene to flesh out what has now become a shared vision. 

Today, Ētienne de Silhouette is a quintet comprising former members of Disjecta Membra, Splintered in Her Head, Sullen Moon, Blutfleck, Vicious Mandy, and Marineville, to name just a few. These five musicians have worked together for over a decade in different guises, and their influences are wide ranging - encompassing the darker, angular, psychedelic, and atmospheric byways of rock and pop music over the last four decades.

2017 is a year of renewed focus for the band, as they go into the studio and undertake a series of live gigs. Their debut track “A Blow Upon a Bruise”, originally recorded for the 31 Days in Wellington project, is just a taste of what’s to come.
