Silverstein Band • Page 59

Silverstein killed it, as always. It was kinda cool at the beginning, they started out with Bleeds No More, played part of it, then transitioned it right into another song (can't remember which at the top of my head). Tonight Alive was pretty great, high energy, despite the singer having a throat infection and them only playing half-a-set.

 

The outro to Bleeds No More is so good live though, but I loved the set they did on this tour

 

Warped Tour posted this video, Shane and Bill talk a little in it.

Shane saying "We're gonna make every show count" seems to imply they're doing a run again

 

I loved Dead Reflection last year and put it on my AOTY list at #6. This past week I’ve visited it again for the first time since my first month with the album and this album has CLICKED with me so hard. I love this album now. Should have made 3-4 on my list easily

 

I’m disappointed in myself for not coming back to it more, it was #3 on my list. It’s been easy to find other stuff to listen to though, the album is still fantastic.

 

praying for a shipwreck in the sand ten year tour next year

 

The River Oaks 7" is on sale for $5 here.

 

"Available to residents of Canada ONLY. Please know if you order from outside of Canada your order will be cancelled"

 

Hopefully Shane records some more River Oaks stuff soon

 

Excellent. Hopefully some shows as well

 

Confession as a die-hard Silverstein fan: I've never listened to Arrivals And Departures all the way through, nor do I like all of it.

Shane's melodies just seem so grating on that album, and the screams feel so intrusive. "If You Could See Into My Soul" is the worst song they've ever done, and the sugar-infused poppier songs on the album are the only redeeming quality. A good portion heavier songs have such unbearably apathetic sounding vocals which isn't good for a band that relies on emotionsl delivery.

'Sound of the Sun' 'Still Dreaming' and 'Vanity and Greed' are all bops though, and Silverstein will always be my favorite band.

 

I actually agree with some of those criticisms but I still like the album a lot and IYCSIMS is a top tier Silverstein track for me. Only song on that album I don’t like is bodies and words.

 

If You Could See Into My Soul is one of my favourites from this album. But yeah, the screams were not great on that album.

 

Now I'm not sure that this isn't secrectly Shane Told's account

 

IIRC Shane did all the vocals to that album in like a day

 

rough day lol

 

This is what I wanted to say, as well.

 

Cool. Pretty sure I own a standard black vinyl already, but I grabbed Discovering the Waterfront.

 

DTW is the first vinyl record I bought six years ago. Can’t believe I’ve been collecting that long.

 

Ugh don’t want to support Victory but I want to support the band so I bought DTW and Shipwreck lol. Been a long time coming for both of those

 

Still kicking myself for not getting Wind Shifts 7” boxset.

 

I mean, it's Victory so is the band even getting money from these?

 

Wish I’d gotten the purple 12” one. Loved the color.
