Silent Rage formed in 1985 with the three founding members EJ Curse, Jesse Damon, Mark Hawkins. The band is known for their multi - captivating vocals, the unmistakeable blend of Melodic and Hard Rock and signature songwriting reminiscing of the heydays of 80’s Arena Hard Rock.
In 1987 they teamed up with Producer/Artist Paul Sabu (WASP, John Waite, Alice Cooper etc) for their first album, “Shattered Hearts”, who went to #1 on the European Import Charts. In August of 1988, Gene Simmons of KISS signed them to his Simmons Records/RCA label and Brian James Fox joined the band on drums. For the 2nd release, Paul Sabu and Gene Simmons were chosen to lend their production skills. The result was “Don’t Touch Me There”, released in 1989. That record too, reached #1 on European Import Charts. The song “Rebel With a Cause” was released as a single and video and debuted on MTV's Headbanger's Ball. The Band also toured with Black Sabbath during the "Headless Cross" tour.
In the 1990’s, Silent Rage continued touring and songwriting. They also wrote & performed with other projects and eventually went on hiatus.
In 2001 Silent Rage reformed with its founding members, plus Rodney Pino on drums, to sign recording deal with UK based indie. They reissued their first two CD's and released "Still Alive", SR's 3rd studio release, in 2002. "Still Alive" was produced by Bob Ezrin (Kiss, Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper) and co-produced and engineered by Kevin Beamish (R.E.O. Speedwagon, Y&T).
Now in 2008 Silent Rage are back with their 4th studio album entitled "Four Letter Word". The new material continues as a natural progression from their "Don't Touch Me There" CD, blending hard driving rock with big memorable choruses. It's produced by Gilby Clarke (Guns’n’Roses) and, once again, features members Jesse Damon, EJ Curse, Mark Hawkins and Rodney Pino, plus some very special guests performances by Bruce Kulick (KISS), Bobby Blotzer (Ratt), Gilby Clarke (Guns N Roses, Rockstar Supernova), Dilana (Rockstar Supernova), Brian James Fox (Silent Rage) and more.
Get ready for a raw, rock explosion for melodic hard rock fans, new and old!
