Silverstein – “Bankrupt” Video • Page 2

The last album was terrific and should have gotten more play. I like this fine. But anyone who slept on the last record for really catchy post hardcore should check it out. My four year old daughter sings along to “Madness” every time it comes on.

 

Like somebody else said, Dead Reflection is my favorite record of theirs. Been listening since the beginning, and am interested to see what else the guys come up with. I enjoyed the verses on this one, but don’t care for the chorus. Maybe it will grow on me.

 

The low bending riff in the breakdown/bridge almost sounded like a sample of the main riff from BMTH’s “Wonderful Life”

 

Totally agree with you. That album is perfection.

 

TIHTWS is by far my favorite of theirs too. I felt this was the band at their peak. I wish they would explore that sound some more. This is just eh for me.

 

Haven't listened to this guys in over 15 years but I'm always happy to see they are still doing what they love.

 

I dig the song. Silverstein still doing their thing and going strong.

As a band, does anyone know if they do well? I feel like their output is always well done, in this case the music video, so these guys are either making money or love to fund quality behind their art.

 

I think they are doing fairly well.

 

on the topic of this is how the wind shifts, gonna be bold here and say that stand amid the roar might have my favourite riff from this genre of music

 

I think what's nuts is that Silverstein is good at executing pretty much anything they want. whether you like it I think varies.I think this is a great progression from ABPTD. not quite my sweet spot, but I'm gonna end up listening to it a bunch anyway.

It's great to see so much love for Dead Reflection. Of course TIHTWS is almost perfect, but damn, tell me in 2005 that I'd still be talking about Silverstein and I'd be like "the robot heart guys??"

 

That riff never fails to incite some bedroom moshing

 

Uh I mean your original argument not only made no sense, but is also incredibly insulting and yet you're doubling down on it. I don't know why you're making this weird correlation being intelligence and music listening habits. You should also learn to take a joke as people were playfully roasting you or making memes out of your "I'm smarter than you" post.

 

Lol never change, absolutepunk.net

 

Why don't you reply with your main account?

 

I mean, I get the point he's trying to make, but "less musically adventurous" or something like that would have been a much better word choice than "less educated". It was a poor word choice.

 

I click the did not enjoy button.

 

That song was awesome. I don’t know this band at all but was so pumped to check them out until everyone here saying this song is a complete departure for them. I’m still curious though.
Oh and I have a PhD so on behalf of the educated, we love this track. I do understand the Octane XM reference, but hey sometimes that station is what you need to hear.

 

Ma, PHD guy said Silverstein a smart band.

 

I wouldn't say it's a complete departure at all. More like a natural progression of their sound.

 

Wind Shifts is easily my favorite. The last one was better than I thought it would be but it's just not memorable to me like Wind, Shipwreck, Waterfront are. Dead Reflection is good too, just not on their highest level for me.

I'm glad if they're doing well with whatever direction they go.

 

I think Silverstein is incapable of putting out a bad tune.
