MIKE LEPOND'S SILENT ASSASSINS' new full-length, Whore Of Babylon is out now. Forging a union between the mighty worlds of heavy metal and ancient history, Whore Of Babylon serves as the band's third studio album and is a no-holds barred, gauntlet-thrown, true heavy metal mission led by LEPOND, known worldwide as one of the foremost bass virtuosos in heavy metal music and a member of progressive metal band SYMPHONY X.

In celebration of its release, the band has delivered a new video for the track "Tell Tale Heart". Offers LEPOND, "Take the ultimate journey through darkness and death with my metal movie score to Poe's classic story. This song is epic and one of my proudest moments."

Whore Of Babylon was recorded between various tours with SYMPHONY X in SYMPHONY X guitarist Michael Romeo's home studio. LEPOND also plays all rhythm guitars, while the core of SILENT ASSASSINS - vocalist Alan Tecchio and guitarist Lance Barnewold - remains unchanged. From the scintillating fury of "Dracul Son" to the baroque mystery of the title track, with Whore Of Babylon LEPOND has written and produced the sort of album that traditional metalheads have been dreaming of. Amidst the furious aural assault, LEPOND also marches through the tales of some of history's most fascinating and brutal characters.

MIKE LEPOND'S SILENT ASSASSINS' Whore Of Babylon is out now on Silver Lining Music on CD and digital formats. D2C bundles are also available.

As the world spins on an axis weirder and crazier than any of us could've predicted even a month ago, there is more purpose and value in knowing your history than ever before. When that learning is wrapped in the sort of molten metal that is Whore Of Babylon, education becomes so much better. Listening to MIKE LEPOND'S SILENT ASSASSINS is a gateway to halting the cycle of human ignorance: a sentence you might've thought you'd never read, but one which can most certainly bear the finest of fruit... that and it will push your speakers to the brink of metal-motivated madness.
