Pittsburgh metal/hardcore hybrid 156/Silence have released synth heavy new single, “To Take Your Place.”
The new single is the third to be released off the band’s upcoming record Narrative, expected 2 September from Sharptone Records.
Guitarist Jimmy Howell says of the new song;
“We experimented with synths for the first time on ‘Irrational Pull’ and went a little bit further on the EP but on ‘Narrative’ we really dove straight in. ‘To Take Your Place’ is the most synth heavy song on the record and it was fun to write something a little different. We all love the sounds of analogue synths so we decided to write something where those really took center stage.”
Bad Dad (occasionally called Ed) has been on the periphery of the punk and punk-adjacent scene for over twenty years. While many contributors to this site have musical experience and talent, Ed’s musical claim to fame comes from his time in arguably the most punk rock Blockbuster Video district in NJ where he worked alongside members of Blanks 77, Best Hit TV and Brian Fallon. He is more than just an awful father to his 2 daughters, he is also a dreadful husband, a subpar writer, a terrible dresser and has a severe deficiency in all things talent… but hey, at least he’s self-aware, amirite?
