Deafening Silence

The Italian trio Desert Wave was formed in 2016, when Drugo (drums) and Logan (bass), who were already playing in a doom metal band, decided to break away and form their own project with a more psychedelic / stoner- style. Guitarist Burton joined them a month later, and their musical influences were quite similar: Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, 70s hard rock, Seattle grunge, up to the granite desert sound of Kyuss. With Deafening Silence, Desert Wave created a more psychedelic and epic, mostly instrumental sound than their 2017 debut, Lost In Dunes, much more like the long jam sessions they play in the rehearsal room. The songs were born during the Pandemic that deeply marked the band. The lyrics are a bit dark and gloomy, and, on ‘Endless Night’, Logan’s voice carries that ghostly presence that loomed over us all.
