‘Out Of the Silence’ is one of numerous classics from UK’s leading Melodic Rock act DARE. For the 30th anniversary of this stupendous record, the group around singer Darren Wharton and guitarist Vinny Burns re-recorded all tracks with a rockier, 2018 updated approach.
Now 2023, ”Out Of The Silence II [Anniversary Special Edition]” is being available on digital lossless for the first time.
Some fans, when they heard the news of thei release thought it was going to be a sequel, however as Darren Wharton stated: ”the album has been re-recorded and has taken on a new life.” And it indeed these songs sound revitalized on these new takes. Wharton is joined by original guitarist Vinny Burns, Kev Whitehead (drums), the ‘Blood From Stone’ album’s bassist Nigel Clutterbuck, and Marc Roberts (keys).
You just can’t go wrong with this album from the opening keys on ‘Abandon’ through to the closing notes of ‘Don’t Let Go’, it is as the oft used phrase says ‘all killer, no filler’.

Darren’s vocals are still in fine form as can be heard on the aforementioned ‘Abandon’, where his singing on the chorus is still a magical moment on the ears and senses. The keys still pomp it up on ‘Into The Fire’, one of my favorite songs from the band.

There are a few musical tweaks such as on the tribute to Phil Lynott ‘King Of Spades’ the band add a little more Celtic music to the song (as does ‘Raindance’), something Dare have done since 1998′s ‘Calm Before The Storm’.
Vinny Burns lays down a few rockier solos and the awesome ballad ‘Nothing Is Stronger Than Love’ has a bigger production and a stunning guitar solo that possibly tops the original.

The original album was a classic of its time and still sounds good today. With this re-recorded version it allows the band to celebrate the album’s anniversary their way and add a few modern touches here and there, whilst keeping true to the original album’s feel and sound.
It’s Dare, it’s quality.
