JAMES MOFFATT LEAVES UNSILENCE 27/12/17
This is old news so I apologige. Back in August, our bassist James Moffatt parted ways with us due to personal reasons. He has withdrawn from music including The Human Condition. We'd like to thank James for the contribution that he made on our last album. Although he has been in the band for five years, the lack of activity has only allowed him the one recording. It's a pity he won't be joining us for future activity and that we never got to play live him, which I'm sure would have been a step forward for us.
We will be looking for a new bassist, although there is no urgency right now.
ECHOES AWAKEN DEMO + EXTRA TRACKS NOW ON BANDCAMP 02/07/17
We have now uploaded the Echoes Awakned demo to our Bandcamp page. It was initially a pre-production demo of what became our debut album 'Under A Torn Sky'. But we decided to make the recordings available on our MySpace page and as a free CD at our live shows.
We Initially didn't publish this demo on Bandcamp as all the songs were on our 'Under A Torn Sky' debut. But they are different recordings, in particular, 'The Last Day' has some different vocal arrangements and lyrics. And there was also an unreleased track called 'Wilderness'. This is also the only recording to feature Andy McLachlan on drums, so its inclusion is a testimony to the four years he was with us.
RIC BARNES RIP November 26th 1974 - 7th February 2017. 08/02/17
Our first drummer Ric Barnes sadly died yesterday, aged 42.
Ric got in touch during late 1993 to drum in my previous band Burial just as we finished, but agreed to drum for Unsilence and he played on our first two demos (1994's "Shadows Cast In Stone" and 1996's "An Unfinished Chapter"). He stood down as our drummer in March 1996 but stayed to be our keyboard player. He eventually left a few months later. Throughout most of the time with us, he also played in Mephisto alongside David Greenwood who would eventually join us.
Ric was a presence in our early days, both musically and with his eccentric humour. He really laid the foundation which others built on. RIP November 26th 1974- 7th February 2017.

PRESS PAGE UPDATE, etc. 29/01/16
We have added two pages with reviews of our "A Fire On The Sea" album to the reviews section.It has been a quiet year for us mainly with James' coursework and fatherhood. But we have been working on new material and hope to resume some activity this summer.We also plan to finally do some new T-shirts with the cover of our most recent album, "A Fire On The Sea" during the next month. The colour scheme of the T-shirt image will be a single colour -simpler than the album cover as that would be a nightmare to reproduce. See below.
We will be sure to keep you updated on the
T-shirts.
