The entire Discovering The Waterfront album is a masterpiece. One of my all time favorite albums from the 2000s. This was a great reaction. I love your reaction and I loved this video, I love that you also analyze the vocals too!
Silverstein has been one of my favorite bands for almost 20 years! Discovering the Waterfront is one of the albums I always have one rotation at least 3 times a week. They're just so good and Shane's ability to switch from clean vocals to hard vocals is so amazing. You really do need to see them live! So much energy from them still! Recently saw them and were just as good as the last time I saw them :)
"Smile in Your Sleep" by Silverstein, is not only a certified throwback banger bop, but it is also the quintessential archetype of what a Post-Hardcore/Emo track should be. Everything about it reeks of that sound/era. The structure, flow, lyrics, breakdown, and singing vs screaming ratio.
Just stumbled across your reaction. Silverstein is royalty of the post-hardcore genre and Discovering the Waterfront is truly a masterpiece and I'd recommend listening to the full album. It came out right around the same time as The Black Parade by MCR so all of us little Emo kids were spoiled at the time. Silverstein is still releasing solid stuff. Some of my favorite songs from more recent albums would be "Massachusetts" (2013) and "A Midwestern State of Emergency" (2015)
this band is so good and underrated. you should definitely do a part 2!!! :) their songs for me always have a meaning and their lyrics too. i think you would love their acoustic stuff. for part 2 you should do Afterglow (Dead Reflection) Call it Karma acoustic version Giving up (Redux: the first ten years album)
@@mysticmusic3705 honestly so many good songs lol you can do either Call it Karma acoustic or Massachusetts Acoustic :) both songs are good. My favorite out of the two is Massachusetts
For me, the drummer, paul Koehler, was way ahead of the band musically at this point, and they catch up to him over time That being said, Shane told was always a great lyricist, just think he was lost in the mix of the early days
I always love when mainstream audiences listen to like The used or Underoath and be like: Oh this reminds me of fall out boy or mcr. in this case shes comparing silverstein to 21 pilots! ha! i love it, bless her
In their song, Discovering the Waterfront, a member of Yellowcard plays a beautiful strings section. Once the song came out, he didn't like the hard vocals and wanted them removed, but Shane refused, and remembered to thank him for the song in a video by Alternative Press about 15 years later.
Yellow Card is one of those bands I feel never reached their full potential, they proved they could write a soaring hit with ocean ave, and the violin goes great with pop punk, but they just could never pull off another ocean ave
Half times are big in metalcore plz check out destroy the runner saints and without sight and and senses fail american death and rum is for drinking not burning
Shame that I discovered this band while in a day or two..The 1st song who took me to Silverstein was My heroine(It was discovered when I watching Black Veil Bride's Vocalist Andy Biersack's rare photos from his childhood then this song was added to the background.. Instead of looking the photos I dragged down to the song😅.. Oh you're wearing a BVB band also in your hand?If I'm not mistaken..So it means you're listening to BVB also? Love to know that also)after hearing my heroine I just track down to the path and here I am listening to every song of them.. Love this band so much.. Sadnto see they are underrated💔need more appreciation than this!!!
Shane Told is the singer. They're such a good band. This is actually an older song. I've seen the live twice in the past year and they're so good live too. I reccomend diving into the rabbit hole if you haven't already. You won't be disappointed.
