 About SiM:

SiM (Silence iz Mine) conquered their native country with a volatile mix of nü-metal and postmodern hard rock injected with hardcore attitude. The self-described “Reggae PUNX from Japan” broke into the US rock scene with hard-charging singles, including the No. 1 smash “The Rumbling.” 

With the release of their latest album PLAYDEAD via UNFD, the alt-metal four-piece set their sights on the world. 

 The band's music conjures the melodic bombast and rhythmic punch of early 2000s heavy hitters like Korn, Linkin Park, and Deftones, with precision blasts of chunky metalcore and the renegade spirit of classic reggae, two-tone ska, and punk that's supercharged generations of subculture. They've created six full-length studio albums, three mini-albums, and an EP since their formation in 2004, in addition to performing at festivals around the world including Rock AM Ring, Rock IM Park, Download Festival, Graspop, Louder Than Life, and Welcome To Rockville. 

SiM wrote 2022's “The Rumbling” for the massive anime Attack on Titan: The Final Season Part 2 and “The Rumbling” shot to No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Hard Rock Songs. It quickly racked up over 110 million streams on Spotify, and the official music video crossed 47 million views on YouTube. 

 They sold out the world-famous Nippon Budokan in 2015 and the 17,000-capacity Yokohama Arena in 2016. The same year, they made their US live debut at Knotfest Meets Ozzfest. “The Rumbling” also appears on PLAYDEAD, SiM's sixth studio album, alongside “UNDER THE TREE,” the barnstorming “DO THE DANCE,” and “RED,” the theme song for the Netflix anime Kengan Ashura. 

 SiM began in Shonan, Kanagawa, Japan. Prior to the band's formation, frontman MAH played in a high school group heavily inspired by Nirvana, Muse, Sublime, and punk. The reggae/punk vibe persisted as SiM took shape, while the band's heavier side evolved toward more aggressive metal. SHOW-HATE joined the band on guitar in 2006, and SiM's debut album, Silence iz Mine, followed two years later. In 2009, the current lineup was completed by SiN on bass and GODRi on drums.
