Band Biographies: Our Ceasing Voice

Founded in 2006 in Innsbruck, the band has long stood as a defining force within the Austrian underground, known for a sound that seamlessly intertwines evocative vocals, heavy guitar work, carefully crafted rhythms, and the ever-shifting tension between silence and noise. Across three full-length albums and multiple EPs, OUR CEASING VOICE has continuously reshaped its identity, bringing its immersive and emotionally charged performances to stages across Europe, the UK, and China.

From the cinematic and largely instrumental landscapes of their debut EP Steadied Stars in the Morphium Sky to the expanding emotional depth of When the Headline Hit Home and That Day Last November, the band has never ceased to explore new sonic territories. A defining turning point came in 2017 with the addition of vocalist Dominik Dörfler, whose raspy and deeply expressive low register voice became a cornerstone of Free Like Tonight, blending cinematic rock, dark ambient textures, and alternative influences into a cohesive and haunting vision.

Now featuring Sebastian Obermeir on guitar, Markus Rappold on drums, Dominik Dörfler on vocals, and Jakob Schuierer on bass, the band returns with renewed focus and a broader artistic scope, preparing to unveil their fourth full-length album in fall 2026.
