Explained simply
Silvertomb is a heavy metal band formed by musicians who have played in other established groups. Kenny Hickey and Johnny Kelly were members of Type O Negative, known for dark, slow-moving metal, while Hickey also played with Danzig.
The band’s first album, Edge of Existence, came out in 2019. Its follow-up is their second full-length record, with a line-up that also includes Joe James, Hank Hell and Aaron Joos.
The gap between the albums reflects both the disruption caused by the pandemic and Hickey’s decision to address problems with alcohol. The band’s return matters to listeners following the former Type O Negative members’ work and to fans of contemporary doom metal.
