Silver Snakes is a Los Angeles-based
electronic/industrial rock trio comprised of
Alex Estrada on vocals and guitar, Michael
Trujillo on bass, and Mike Woods on guitar.
The band is located just outside of Chinatown
in LA where their studio, Pale Moon Audio
Studios, is most appropriately housed in an
industrial building.

Silver Snakes’ new album “Death and The
Moon,” their fourth full-length album, was
released May 3rd, 2019. This album expands
upon the bands’ movement in an electronic
direction. This is the second album that the
band has worked with Claudio Sanchez out of
“Evil Ink Records.”

“Death and The Moon” finds Silver Snakes
holding an industrial space while remaining
true to their dark rock roots in their previous
album, “Saboteur,” released in 2016. Estrada,
Trujillo, and Woods cover songs from icons
who have influenced their current direction --
such as Ministry and Garbage. ION also hears a
bit of late 80s/early 90s Nine Inch Nails on the
tracks. The synth hooks found throughout the
album will have you cranking up the volume!
