Man On Fire (Gothic Music Records 2013)

Tragedy Gold from the forthcoming 4th album.

Tragedy Gold

This track is called "I'M HUMAN, I'M SEXUAL" It's a song about human rights. It doesn't matter are you boy or girl, man or woman as long as there's responsibility of your actions. It's nobody's bisness are you hetero, gay or bisexual. Human is animal in many ways. Both have similar instincts like hunger, thirst, stress, affection and lust, but human builds himself a cage when animal is free. Human has strict limits what is accepted and what's not. That pressure comes from the outside world - other people. So, there is fear of not beeing accepted and there's shame of not being a "normal" person. So, you've got to beat the fear and shame and be free.
As a contract to strong message we wanted to create a funky song with pumping rhythm to add some perversity. It's dancey and there's a little tongue in cheek in the way how it is sung. So, here you go any feedback is welcome! This it that's how it's going to be on records. All the best, Antti.

I'M HUMAN, I'M SEXUAL 
Feel affection to a man, feel affection to a woman 
Animals are free in natural heat
Man builds himself a cage
Man builds himself a cage

I'm human, I'm sexual
You're human, you're sexual

Fear is sickness - you gotta let it go
There's too much hatred - you gotta let it go
Animals are free in natural heat
Man builds himself a cage

I'm human, I'm sexual
You're human, you're sexual

We built these walls to hide the shame
You've gotta beat it, beat it, beat it
Living ain't easy, you gotta ease the pain
Living ain't easy, you gotta ease the pain


I´m Human, I´m Sexual

Spirit Invocation (Stupido Records 2012)

Two tragic deaths within a year. Not the easiest start for a new finnish goth/post-punk band Silent Scream.
The story goes back in 1996 when Antti Lautala and Henry Waldén formed a band called Varjo (a shadow in english). Varjo was influeced by gothic rock, post-punk and ambient but it differed from other gothic bands by the finnish lyrics. At the beginning of the 21st century Varjo was the most s
uccessful gothic band with finnish lyrics.

After the third album there were changes in line-up but also a tragedy: ex-keyboard player disappeared and after a year and a half he was found dead. After those difficult times Varjo made new songs, supported New Model Army and was ready to record the fifth album.
Two weeks before the studio Henry died in a fire accident and that ended the story of Varjo.

Four months after the funerals the trio recorded the last album "Viimeinen näytös" and it was released in January 2010 (Stupido Records)

After the recordings Antti, Matthew and Jukka decided to continue with a new band name and new songs. It was also natural to change the language and write lyrics in english. Silent Scream will go further to the core of post-punk with influences like Killing Joke, Amebix etc.

In the same year 2010 Silent Scream released the debute album "In the Cinema" (Stupido Records). Outside Finland Silent Scream has played in Berlin and Moscow. They have also played as a support for UK Decay and Brendan Perry (Dead Can Dance)

The second album "Public Execution" was released in 2012 and the split album "Bones from the Backyard" in 2013 (Gothic Music Records) 

In 2016 Silent Scream released their third album "Carrion Screaming". It is a collaboration with Stupido Records, Mass Media Records and Occult Whispers Records. 

In 2017 the lineup changed with new drummer Markku Ollila joining the band. Silent Scream is currently working on their 4th album.
