Russia has quickly become a hotbed for progressive, with artists like Siberian Son and Alex Stealthy paving the way.
Continuing this Russian revolution are the Silent Brothers, with an emotional, ethereal troika that lifts listeners
off their feet but never loses sight of the dancefloor.

Currently #3 seller on ResonantVibes.com

I recently discovered this EP after hearing Departed in a set, by Perry O'Neil i think. I sat back and listened to the three tunes and i was blown away. All three are among the best i've heard the past year or so, it's absolutely top notch atmospheric prog. With three tracks like these one clearly understands that these guys know what they're doing.

10/10

Thanks for the kind words...I'm glad that you were able to come across this release. It never quite got the love that I hoped it would...hopefully you'll be able to turn on others to this sound! The Silent Brothers did great work on these tracks, and it's one of my favorite releases, as well.

Alba is okay, I prefer Quasar.

Sadly true. I just realized it's almost two years since i first heard these tracks. Time flies.
