PROLOGUE:Moravia - Central European region (now part of Czech Republic), the oldest early-medieval Slavonic state unit. Unlike Bohemia, Moravia belongs ethnographically to eastern cultures, what reflects in music, traditions, language and temper of Moravians.
Music of SILENT STREAM OF GODLESS ELEGY is full of metal energy and power, expressive Moravian melodics and surprising relations between doom metal sorrow and melancholy and a grief of Moravian traditional ballads. The latest album RELIC DANCES, inspired by the oldest shapes of Moravian tunes, which through its roughness and raw poetics just incites to a fusion of hard music and colours of Moravian folklore, contains eight songs, whose duration is a humble consent to traditional form of folk ballad. We can call the final shape easily as an "ethno metal", or - if you want - "folk doom metal". And if you want to listen to this music in Czech, try OSAMELI - a bonus album containing RELIC DANCES songs sung in Slavonic languages...
Czech musical Academy awarded RELIC DANCES album GRAMMY award (called "Andel" - "Angel" in english) as the best hardrock album as-well-as Czech hard'n'heavy publicist symposium called BRITVA ("Razor") did.
SILENT STREAM OF GODLESS ELEGY have played hundreds of gigs and festivals, supported bands like Anathema, The Gathering, Skyclad and Cradle Of Filth on their gigs in Czech Republic and had live appearances in Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, Austria and Switzerland within fourteen years of band's run.
