Let’s briefly get to know the heavy metal band Sylarini from Kansas:
Sylarin is a band from Kansas City, MO. Its sound combines classic heavy metal music elements with progressive aesthetics and the punch of the contemporary scene. The group features members already accustomed to working together in another line-up, Parvenu. Vocalist Rachel McMillan set out to ignite the band’s sound with a soulful vocal performance while still endowing the songs with enough fuel and grit. Her fierce and unapologetic singing style merges perfectly with Thorin Pierce’s nuanced guitar work. The seven-string player does everything, from stadium-sized guitar riffs to blistering solos and nuanced ambient soundscapes. To round up the line-up, Alec Stockman sits behind the drum kit. He provides a sturdy backbone for the band, driving the energy and intensity of Sylarin’s vision.
Sylarin, who released their song called Chains of Authority, said the following about this song:
Chains of Authority is a forceful and critical metal track dripping with damnation. In 5/4 meter, the disjointed melodies and stop-start nature of the song lure you in to deliver the sudden blows of its message. The screams and layered instrumentation amp up the intensity as the song unfolds, demanding a brighter future. It is condemning, insistent and powerful.
