A Day To Remember Nearly Steal Silverstein's Show

in
By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) September 25, 2009 3:02 pm
Never underestimate the power of a few hundred angry teenagers. I arrived at the Sound Academy just in time to see Edmonton's Ten Second Epic finish their last two songs. I expected a bit of a wait between their set and tunes from Ocala, Fla.'s A Day To Remember, but that was not to be. While the roadies were setting up the Floridian quintet's...

Vans Warped Tour Still Rocks

in
By Bianca Marcus (CHARTattack) July 13, 2009 2:39 pm
The Vans Warped Tour has a certain ethos no other festival has been able to reproduce. The music is only one part of the appeal of this traveling circus — the rest, as longtime attendees can attest, is a combination of nostalgia, anticipation and perspiration. Warped has become legendary for its history of breaking countless new bands and for...

Silverstein — A Shipwreck In The Sand

in
By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) April 8, 2009 12:56 pm
It's hard to believe Silverstein have been around for nearly a decade now, but they've reached the point where they can take a few chances here and there (of course, bear in mind this is a screamo band). That comes across on this fourth album. Opener "A Great Fire" is probably the heaviest thing they've ever done and recalls "Bleeds No More"...

Silverstein — Arrivals & Departures

in
By Cameron Gordon (CHARTattack) July 17, 2007 9:56 am
The screamo thing has been done to death by now, but if you insist on listening to this kind of clatter, you could do a lot worse than Burlington, Ont.'s Silverstein. Their recent Arrivals & Departures follows the loud/quiet/loud template, yet manages to interject some serious vocal gravity thanks to lead singer Shane Told. His boyish vocals...

Silverstein — 18 Candles: The Early Years

in
By Paul Budel (CHARTattack) July 18, 2006 10:30 am
First of all, if you don't already like Silverstein, it's highly doubtful this disc will do anything to change your opinion. That being said, fans who don't already own the music on 18 Candles will surely be satisfied. Comprised of their first two EPs (Summer's Stellar Gaze and When The Shadow Beams) plus two acoustic songs, three live tracks and...

After a series of successful European and Australian jaunts, the Burlington, Ont. quintet decided it was time for a trip to the land of the rising sun. First impressions count...

Screamo fans had a great way to kick off the long weekend last Thursday when the second annual Taste Of Chaos tour made its way to Arrow Hall for one of the last dates on the trek. Though co-headliners Thursday announced earlier in the week that they were not going to perform, the venue was still packed with sweaty teenagers whose T-shirts gave...

Silverstein — Discovering The Waterfront

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) August 16, 2005 3:11 pm
Emo meets hardcore. While that sounds obviously like screamo, when you hear Discovering The Waterfront you won't want to peg Silverstein into that slot. Thanks to intelligent tracks such as "My Dagger Versus Your Sword" with its dynamic fluctuations that range from introspectively quiet to fiercely aggressive and the borderline-overwrought emotive...

Video Of The Day: Silverstein's "Burning Hearts"

By CHARTattack Staff (CHARTattack) June 14, 2011 9:53 am
Something's going down in Silverstein's video for "Burning Hearts" because people apparently aren't taking their government's crap anymore. The band are leading some kind of violent revolution against the police, throwing molotov cocktails into police cars and bashing shit up. This all makes what the Black Bloc did at the 2010 G20 summit in...

Silverstein — Rescue

Screamo would have been a cash grab for major labels had they gotten in on it a good... I don't know... eight years ago when most of these bands like Silverstein and Alexisonfire were still slugging it out at YMCAs throughout the Greater Toronto Area trying to get signed. But by now screamo's gotten exceedingly tired, and it's becoming harder and...
