A metalcore act that builds songs around horror films, from The Silver Scream to Welcome to Horrorwood.
If you want to hear their horror-metalcore blend in action, Communion Of The Cursed and A Grave Mistake are good places to start. They're both from The Silver Scream and show how they handle the concept.
They've carved out a specific lane in metalcore by consistently drawing from horror cinema for their material. The Silver Scream hit number one on Billboard's Hard Rock Albums chart, and tracks like Communion Of The Cursed show how they translate movie scenes into heavy songs. That focus has given them a recognizable identity in a crowded genre.
Spencer Charnas started the band in Boston in 2000, and they've released five albums. The Silver Scream in 2018 and Welcome to Horrorwood: The Silver Scream 2 in 2021 solidified their horror-themed approach. Their lineup has shifted over the years, with current members including Ryan Kirkpatrick on guitar.
