Biography

Listen and discover a branch of the genealogical tree of Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Conducted by the founding guitarist of GY!BE Efrim, A Silver Mt. Zion brings together other members of the father-group, Sophie and Thierry. Not fundamentally diverge from the emotions that GY!BE offers us, A Silver Mt. However, Zion is a fully-fledged group whose distinctive features are primarily in its smaller number of permanent members and then in its extensive use of violins and cellos. On the other hand, guitars and drums are more discreet. But unlike GY!BE, the melodies do not repeat themselves crescendoly in order to reach a crescendo climb, but take it directly by the tripes, thanks to a clever mix: a complaining voice coming out of the darkness, a sudden awakening of the instruments or a languorous ballad.
Anyway, if you already like GY!BE, there is a good chance that you will be seduced by her baby.
