When Music is Silenced
A monster called Cacophony attacks the Manehattan Bash and kidnaps DJ Pon3, along with all of the other performers. Faced with the threat of an Equestria without music, Thunder Growl must seek help to find out what Cacophony is, and how to stop it.
When the Manehattan Bash is attacked by a being that calls itself Cacophony, Thunder Growl is the only performer to escape being captured—because he was at the bar. He races back to the Bash just in time to have his flank handed to him by the unstoppable monster.
With his bandmates missing, Thunder Growl must face demons both within and without to track down Cacophony, unravel the mystery of the creature's power and its hatred of all things musical and harmonious, and rescue the ponies it has captured.
Luckily, he will not have to do it alone. Thunder's travels soon take him to Ponyville, where a certain group of friends are more than willing to lend their assistance... whether he wants it or not.
