As previously mentioned, $15,000 of audio equipment, house projects and personal belongings were stolen from Silent Barn. Below is a list of the major missing sound gear:

If you have information on these or other items taken from the venue, please email silentbarn@gmail.com.

UPDATE:

Now, you can also help Silent Barn rebuild via Kickstarter.

According to Silent Barn’s Facebook page:

This weekend has been incredibly heartbreaking for all of us at The Silent Barn. On top of many issues that we’re currently dealing with, over the weekend our house was completely ransacked.  About $15k worth of audio equipment, house projects and personal belongings are gone.  The violence to the space is almost as upsetting as the theft.  Doors were ripped off of hinges, furniture ripped to shreds, and everything in the space strewn about in a sea of debris. We’ve lost 7 years worth of accumulated equipment, tools, and artwork donated and built by individuals from every end of the scene’s spectrum, and we’re still reeling with what this means for our own lives and the future of the space.  If you would like to find out what you can do, email silentbarn@gmail.com.  We need your help to continue.

Thank you for your concern over the last few days. It means as much to us as the space itself.

This video was also posted, encouraging people to stop the violence against DIY spaces. If you can help in any way, drop Silent Barn a line.

Relapse recording artists Dysryhthmia played a show at The Silent Barn last Saturday. Heavily focusing on new material, the band tore through a killer 40 minute set of instrumental mayhem. 2 of those new songs can be found in the video below.

Williamsburg, meet the grand ol’ awesomeness that hit the Silent Barn like a growling tornado last night: Deathcrush and Altaar.

Sam Mickens played the Silent Barn last night. Below is footage of him covering Bowie and a few of his own jams.

After about a year of hibernation, Charlie Looker’s Extra Life is back. Now a three piece, the trio sounds more fierce than ever before. A sold out Silent Barn got a taste of it last night. Below is the first song of Extra Life’s set as well as a clip of opener Buke and Gass.

RJOiii sent in video of Future Islands playing the Silent Barn Saturday night. Here’s Inch of Dust:

He writes:

Future Islands played the Silent Barn in Brooklyn last night. I was there with my camera. This is video of the track “Inch of Dust”. You can’t see it, but the floor was shaking.

Behold, the sweatiest, happiest, most bad-ass show I’ve seen in a Brooklyn DIY venue in a long long time.

Future Islands wrapped up a two-month spring tour last night and have a month off before starting back up in July for a week. Then, they’re off to Europe in September. They released their latest LP In Evening Air May 4th.
