Silverstein

About

Silverstein: Screaming into the Void, Surviving the Scene For over two decades, Silverstein has been the reliable, beating heart of the post-hardcore scene. They’re not chasing trends; they *are* the trend, consistently delivering emotionally charged anthems that resonate with a generation navigating heartbreak and existential dread. Their sound, a tightly wound fusion of melodic hardcore, emo’s vulnerability, and the raw energy of punk, creates a sonic landscape where soaring vocals collide with blistering breakdowns. Formed in Burlington, Ontario, the band carved their path through relentless touring and early releases that established their signature blend of aggression and accessibility. 2005's "Discovering the Waterfront" was a breakthrough, solidifying their place among the giants of the genre. Silverstein didn't just survive the post-hardcore boom; they thrived, evolving their sound while staying true to their roots. Their longevity stems from a willingness to experiment, collaborating with artists across genres, and a commitment to honest songwriting. Shane Told's unmistakable vocals, a blend of pained screams and soaring melodies, remain the band's focal point. With a catalogue spanning ten studio albums and countless tours, Silverstein continues to explore the depths of human emotion, proving that vulnerability and aggression can coexist in perfect, cathartic harmony. Recently, they've continued touring and writing, proving their dedication to their craft remains as strong as ever.
