In Silentio Noctis is a finnish symphonic/melodic black metal band that was founded in 2006. The idea was originally born in the early 2000's, but was only brought to life by Armi Päivinen (vocals) and Elias Vihma (guitars) after splitting from their former band. A year of member hunting and songwriting was concluded in December 2007, when the band recorded their first-and-only demo CD, 'Symphonies of Death', at Klaukkala's D-Studio.
During the following year the band managed to secure a steady and motivated line-up, starring Toni Taskinen on guitars, Kim Suikkanen on bass and Rainer 'Raikku' Tuomikanto as long-term session drummer. In autumn 2008, choirs for live performances and future releases were recorded with members of the Academic Choral Society. The choral parts were used on their next recording, a one-track internet release, 'Signum Crucis', in January 2009.
At that point, hopes of releasing a full-length album were already alive, and after some serious budget planning those hopes were brought to life in May. 'Through Fragments of Christianity' was recorded at D-Studio, mixed at Sonic Pump Studios by Nino Laurenne and mastered by Minerva Pappi at Finnvox Studios.
The debut album "Through Fragments of Christianity", whose production was completed in 2009, led to a recording contract with italian label My Kingdom Music and is scheduled for release on April 2010.
Thus evil shall rise in the silence of the night!
