Battle of The Bands - Semi Final 3

LATENT DREAM
Latent Dream are a four-piece alternative rock band from Northampton, known for their anthemic “big tune” sound. Formed in the summer of 2023, the band quickly established themselves as a local favourite and are now making their mark across London venues.
Fronted by Xander alongside Cameron, Olly and Rob. Latent Dream channel a wide range of influences from Green Day, The Cure and Foo Fighters to Interpol and Pixies into a distinctive style that blends classic rock, punk, grunge and modern indie.
Their music pairs story-driven lyrics and soaring melodies with spacey riffs and a wall of emphatic noise, creating a sound that is both familiar and fresh. With each show and new track, Latent Dream continue to refine their identity and grow their audience, cementing themselves as one of the most exciting emerging acts in their scene.

THE SILENT ARCHIVE
The Silent Archive is a four-piece alt-rock/post-hardcore band from Hertfordshire, drawing influence from bands like Hell is for Heroes, Hundred Reasons, and Reuben. Their sound blends heavy guitar riffs with melodic hooks, creating a dynamic mix that balances intensity and atmosphere.

NINETEENTH HOUR
Nineteenth Hour draws inspiration from bands like Nothing But Thieves and The Amazons, seamlessly blending intricate guitar layers with warm, captivating vocals to create a dynamic mix of tension and joy. Their sound pulses with energy, effortlessly transitioning from soaring anthems to intimate moments, making each track feel both personal and expansive.
Reviewers have described their live performances as “high-energy” and “emotionally
charged,” while fans have hailed their sound as “uniquely refreshing,” drawing them
in with its raw emotion and infectious intensity.
