     Bonnyville, AB melodic metal band SILENT LINE have posted a metal cover version of One Direction’s hit single ‘Drag Me Down’ because sometimes metalheads need to demonstrate their guilty pleasure for pop music.

We were just looking to make a funny cover that isn’t serious by any stretch of the imagination. We thought it would be hilarious to try and turn such a straightforward boy band song into our style of melodic metal. Some people in the band – not naming any names – are on the fence about releasing it, but I think it will get some laughs and hopefully a few new fans! Don’t take it too seriously, and if you want to see what our original material sounds like check out our SoundCloud page or come see us live on March 11th for the Wacken Metal Battles in Edmonton at The Mercury Room!” comments guitarist Mike Burton.

About ‘Shattered Shores’:

Producing heavy and melodic music with an orchestral flair rooted in death metal, Bonnyville, AB SILENT LINE‘s ‘Shattered Shores’ first concept album is now available to follow up their 2012 LP ‘Born of Dying Star’. The title track is split into two parts, and throughout the album several thematic riffs and lyrics are repeated, creating a motif for listeners. The title references being stranded and trapped forever as the shores become more eroded and the reality of isolation sets in. The lyrics revolve around the themes of overcoming hardships, anxiety, and “weathering the storm” in order to persevere. A single person is referred to throughout the album and everything is told from their point of view as they wander, stuck on the island — unsure of how they got there, and unsure if they will ever leave.
