Backstory:
Putrid Quiet hails from the heart of bustling Chicago, conceived by a group of four friends who shared a love for music and transgressive art. The band was formed in 2014 when Noah Thompson (vocals/guitar), Michael “Mick” O’Shea (drums), Sarah Martinez (bass), and Mia Park (synthesisers/violin) discovered a shared passion for challenging societal norms and expressing their unabashed reality through music. Their journey began in a dilapidated warehouse, where they spent countless hours honing their craft, pouring their souls into the music that would soon take the underground music scene by storm.
Over the years, Putrid Quiet has grown without losing their uncompromising spirit, consistently delivering powerful, raw performances that resonate with their fanbase. Their journey hasn’t been easy, marked by failed record deals, financial struggles, and creative differences. However, the bond that the band members share, their unwavering belief in their message, and the relentless support of their fans have carried them through the darkest of times.

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C]Lost in the sea of [Am]glass and steel,
[Dm]Echoes of our dreams [G]they steal.
[C]Beneath the neon [Am]skies we kneel,
[Dm]In the realm of [G]plastic daydreams.
(Chorus)
[C]In the age of [Am]silence, in the putrid quiet,
[Dm]Our voices [G]rise, we won’t stay silent.
[C]Against the machine [Am]of greed and violence,
[Dm]We stand [G]united, in our defiance.
(Verse 2)
[C]We’re just cogs [Am]in their perfect scheme,
[Dm]Lost in the sea of [G]plastic daydreams.
[C]Will we ever [Am]wake from this dream?
[Dm]Or keep feeding [G]their monstrous machine.
(Chorus)
[C]In the age of [Am]silence, in the putrid quiet,
[Dm]Our voices [G]rise, we won’t stay silent.
[C]Against the machine [Am]of greed and violence,
[Dm]We stand [G]united, in our defiance.
