SUICIDE Silence claim to never hold back when on stage - which may explain their fearsome live reputation.

The underground metal band from California are bringing their brand of rabid, aggressive rock to Wolverhampton for a night of Summer Slaughter at the city’s Wulfrun Hall.

Formed in 2002, the band have developed a sound which fans say is best heard live to get the most from their mix of energy and power.

Drummer, Josh Goddard, said: “We try to give the crowd a show rather than standing around watching the moshpit and acting tough.”

Catch Suicide Silence at the Civic’s Summer Slaughter event on Thursday September 4, tickets priced £12.50 are available from Midland Box Office on 0870 320 7000 or online at www.wolvescivic.co.uk
