Releasenotes:
Pray for Sound started as a solo studio project by Bruce Malley in late 2011.
Earlier in Bruce's life, doctors discovered a large destructive cyst called a
cholesteatoma growing inside his left ear. After repeated surgical removal of
the cyst and reconstruction of his ear, he was left with severe hearing loss,
tinnitus, and reoccurring pain. Inspired by this struggle, Bruce translated
these emotional experiences into the music and artwork that make up Pray for
Sound's debut album, Monophonic.
Shortly after releasing Monophonic, in September of 2012, Joe Aylward, Chris
LaRocque, Nick Stewart, and Steve Aliperta were added to the mix to create an
intense live experience with a monstrous sound and an intricate light show.
After immediately meshing as band and playing a handful of successful shows in
the greater Boston area, the new members began bringing unique song ideas to the
table. "With three guitarists and all five band members contributing, we have
the opportunity to create huge, atmospheric songs that really push boundaries",
Malley explains. 23:55, the band's first single written by all five members,
tells the story of the end of the world. The song features heavy riffs, melodic
leads, and dueling drums that create an eerie tension throughout.
Less than a year after becoming a band, Pray for Sound set out on their first
DIY tour, playing 11 shows in 12 days throughout the North East United States.
After returning from the tour, the band collectively decided to focus on writing
new material for their second major release, Dreamer. Dreamer is a seven song
full length clocking in at just over 33 minutes, with each track representing a
different dream state. This time around, Pray for Sound took an ambitious
approach by experimenting with more synth and keyboard sounds, as well as
working with additional musicians to add vocals, violin, and viola. With
influences all over the map, Pray for Sound created an eclectic set of songs
that express a roller coaster of emotions. Dreamer was originally released
digitally, on CD, and on cassette (via Flesh and Bone Records) on July 9th,
2014.
