WERE I BLIND: Music Video "Enjoy the Silence."
August 23, 2017
Were I Blind have released a cover of their favourite Depeche Mode track 'Enjoy The Silence'. The band, who comprise of three and who are ex-members of the likes of Breed 77 and Magna Carta, have created their very own electronic and industrial take on this electrifying track by Depeche Mode.
Were I Blind's cover of 'Enjoy The Silence' has been featured in the Metal Hammer 'Goes 90's' issue on their covermount CD which is out now.
The music video for 'Enjoy The Silence' has been premiered exclusively through Metal Hammer. Check out the link for this here.
This is what Ozzy has to say about the decision made in recording this particular track:
"Maybe it's got to do with childhood memories of my parents' divorce and the sadness and insecurity that came with it, but playing and singing along to Depeche Mode albums back to back was a good therapy and a happy escape for me. "On the other hand I must admit it was quite a ballsy move, it is definitely not a song that hasn't already been covered by at least a hundred other artists," he jokes.
"Depeche Mode doesn't just have a sound that's unique, exquisite, innovative and way ahead of their time, they write good songs, the kind that usually turn into gold. Covering this song ' from learning each chord to giving it our own twist, however 'twisted' the result ' has been a true pleasure."
Combining the party elements of electronic music with some energetic and chaotic riffs, electro-industrial metal outfit 'Were I Blind' are about to bounce into the scene with their Korn and Rammstein-esque influenced tunes. The band who are from London, were formed by drummer/songwriter OC Preciado (Breed 77, Reverted), Alberto Marin (Def Con Dos, Hamlet, Kaothic) and Andrew Trewin (Collisions, Magna Carta).
Were I Blind have announced that they will launch their debut self-titled EP on 1st September 2017 and have released their title track which you can watch the music video for HERE
