SUICIDE SILENCE guitarist & songwriter Mark Heylmun can’t contain his excitement over the band’s newest endeavor: “This new SUICIDE SILENCE app is a game changer – and I hate that term. This isn’t the same old band app with the same old crap. This gets you guys – our fans! – closer to us and us closer to you. My favorite thing about it is live streaming where we can show you what we’re doing wherever we are, either playing a show or just hanging out. This app is everything SUICIDE SILENCE. Check it out!”

“We’re really excited to work with SUICIDE SILENCE on their new app, it’s going to be great! They’re such a forward-thinking band who want to share exclusive content and get closer to their fans via mobile. We can’t wait for the app to be out there for SUICIDE SILENCE fans to experience,” said Benjamin Vaughan, CEO of Disciple Media.
