Seconds To Serenity

Heaviness. Atmosphere. Reflection.

These elements form the foundation of Chicago alternative metal band Seconds To Serenity. Blending crushing riffs with haunting melodies and introspective lyricism, the band channels themes of grief, isolation, resilience, and self-reckoning into music that is both aggressive and deeply cathartic. Their sound draws comparisons to Breaking Benjamin, Starset, Motionless in White, I Prevail, Alter Bridge, Sevendust, and Three Days Grace.

Seconds To Serenity released their debut full-length album Scarlet in 2013, followed by the Learn To Fly EP in 2015. After several years of silence that left the band’s future uncertain, founding frontman Jake LoGiudice revived the project in 2025 alongside Brian Benischek (guitar), Dana Goggin (bass), and Draven DC (drums). With a darker, heavier, and more focused direction shaped by time and experience, the reformed lineup began releasing new material.
