Bio
The Write Up

Silent Scenery consists of singer-songwriter, Kit and a few respective sessionists in the early days. Silent Scenery plays soft, melodic tunes with intense lyrics and humming vocals. In the early days, bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Butterfingers, Oasis, and Pavement heavily influenced Silent Scenery. But as years pass by, Silent Scenery grow to have its own unique sound, which Kit describe it as semi acoustic half-breed post rock. In the year 2007, Silent Scenery turned into a complete band, recruiting Lipei as bassist, Seikan as Drummer and Ivan as Guitarist.

The Reviews

Early Days Reviews
"Armed with an acoustic guitar, this solo project by Kienkit, a non-believer and free thinker whose belief in god ends with suspicion that a higher power lurks somewhere else. He doesnt have the answer where and its his search that makes his music so good. He spends his time writing songs, and recently released his debut demo album, titled Green. Citing Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, and Elliott Smith as heroes, this singer-songwriter takes ordinary circumstances of everyday life, and turns them into profound songs " - Junk Magazine

"Silent Scenery - One man show reminiscent of John Lennon and Elliott Smith" - Klue Magazine

Full Lineup Reviews

“What began as a solo project has now become a quartet with Kit's Silent Scenery.Consisting of bassist and backup vocalist Teoh Li Pei, drummer Feroze Shah Khan and second guitarist Ivan Cheong, with Chan doing vocal and guitar duties, the band plays moving shoegaze and post rock music” - New Straits Times

“Silent Scenery’s music has a promising blend of different musical genre, most notably the brit-pop, new wave sound and American alternative rock with a splice of folk. This unique assimilation of sounds can be considered a rarity as the band balances the experimental, unassuming, side of British music and the unwavering boldness of American rock with with relative control and ease, one meshing almost seamlessly into the other in support of a whole” - RAGE, The Star Newspaper

"The Interlude evokes a certain kinda emotion.Neither sad, neither happy, but it does makes me mellow. Like at the end of one day, you kick back to unwind with it. The perfect record for a "staring at a scenery" kinda feel. Tale Of A Wooden Door was not the same. It was on a happier, hopeful note, and thats why its my all time favourite" - WL, A Dreamy Writer
