Silence Before the Storm is a solo/studio project from Matthew "Axl" Brammer, in Albany County, Wyoming, USA.  Begun in August of 2019, the project is a blend of melodeath, metalcore, groove metal, and modern heavy metal.

"For the Dead We Will Weep", the debut single, was released in August 2019.  The three-song EP Empires was released in October 2019, to a positive reception from new fans and reviewers alike.

Another, longer EP titled The Sufferer, was released on November 8th, 2019 and garnered the project significant attention.

The Alone In Flames EP, SBtS's most recent and arguably heaviest material to date, was released on January 10, 2020.

A full length album, Misery, was released on March 27, 2020.

Brammer is also the force behind melodic death metal outfit Agony By Default, as well as rock band Ashes of Denial and instrumental project Amity Road.  In 2019, death metal project Catervatim announced Brammer as the new vocalist and writer for that band as well.
