SAVAGES, SILENCE YOURSELF

Silence Yourself  by Savages is a debut that demands attention. The London-based post-punk band, made up of four women, comes out swinging with a sound that is loud, sharp, and fully locked in. Jehnny Beth’s vocals cut through with urgency, while the band delivers tight, rhythmic, and unflinching performances. Guitarist Gemma Thompson has said the name Savages reflects the tension between beauty and destruction, an idea the band leans into throughout the album. These are not love songs. They are raw, forceful statements shaped by influences ranging from Black Sabbath to war poetry. Silence Yourself is not just an album, it's a call to arms.
