Silent Planet is an American metalcore band from Azusa, California. The band is currently signed to Solid State Records. To date they have recorded two EPs and two full-length albums. Their name is derived from the C.S. Lewis science fiction novel Out of the Silent Planet. The band has played with other associated acts such as Norma Jean, Beartooth, Texas in July, For Today, Phinehas, Gideon, Enter Shikari, and Fit for a King.
In 2012 the band recorded their first EP Come Wind, Come Weather in Atlanta, Georgia with producer Matt Goldman, which they released on May 15, 2012.
Afterwards, they toured with bands such as Becoming the Archetype, I, of Helix and Dayseeker and played at California Metalfest 2012.
On February 14, 2013 the band released the song "Tiny Hands (Au Revoir)", which tells the story of Marguerite Rouffanche, survivor of the Oradour-sur-Glane massacre on June 10, 1944.
They continued touring and played on the Scream the Prayer Tour with bands like Wolves At The Gate and Fit for a King. On July 23, 2013 the band released the new song "Darkstrand (Hibakusha)", which, like "Tiny Hands (Au Revoir)", also tells the story of a World War II victim; this time the story is set in Japan just after the impact of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
