(Mute) Based in Stockholm, Sweden The Knife create subversive, shape-shifting soundscapes that defy categorization. Moving between realms highly danceable to tightly intimate spaces, theirs is music left of center and on the avant tip. 'Silent Shout,' The Knife's third album, debuted at #1 on the Swedish charts. Mute will release this as The Knife's first domestic release on July 25, 2006. Silent Shout, the first single and title track, will be released on 12" and CD June 27, 2006 and features remixes from Shinedoe, Troy Pierce and more.

Brother and sister, Olof Dreijer and Karin Dreijer Andersson, began making music together as The Knife in 1999, releasing records under their label Rabid Records. Deftly utilizing technology to strip, break down, defile, rebuild, and renew, their self-titled debut album 'The Knife,' released in 2001, was followed by a soundtrack for the independent film 'Hannah med H,' and their second artist album, 'Deep Cuts,' both in 2003.

'Silent Shout,' features Olof and Karin's lurking, textured vocals steeped in a tangled, dark surrealist underbrush. Already released in Sweden under the Knife's label Rabid, 'Silent Shout' is released on Brille in the UK and V2 for the rest of Europe. It finds its American release on Mute Records, also home to boundary defying artists such as Goldfrapp, The Liars, M83, Richie Hawtin (Plastikman), Richard Hawley, Paul van Dyk, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Throbbing Gristle, as well as fellow Swedes Jose Gonzalez and Mando Diao.
