Silverstein readies for new release and tour

As SILVERSTEIN gear up for the release of their new album ARRIVALS & DEPARTURES July 3 on Victory Records, the Canadian band who are known for their potent and compelling rock have announced “If You Could See Into My Soul” as the record’s first single. It will officially arrive at radio June 28 although influential radio stations throughout America have been playing it.

Because SILVERSTEIN is supported by their massive fan-base, it took only 96 hours for “If You Could See Into My Soul” to top 100,000 listens on myspace.com with no proper feature through the site of any kind. SILVERSTEIN--who is SHANE TOLD (vocals), NEIL BOSHART (guitar), JOSH BRADFORD (guitar), BILL HAMILTON (bass) and PAUL KOEHLER (drums)—chose “If I Could See Into Your Soul” as the lead because, as Told states, “it shows our progression as artists and at the same time shows our fans we still have the aggression we always have had. It’s a song we felt great about from the moment we first played it."

As a treat for SILVERSTEIN fans, Victory Records is now offering purchasers of ARRIVALS & DEPARTURES a limited-edition 7-inch vinyl single of “If You Could See Into My Soul.” The B-side of the single will feature an etching of the CD’s compelling cover art created by Martin Wittfooth, whose work also graces SILVERSTEIN’s previous releases, Discovering The Waterfront (2005) and When Broken Is Easily Fixed (2003). This one-time-only collectible is available exclusively by pre-ordering Arrivals & Departures from one of over 200 independent record stores and webstores no later than the release of the album on July 3. For a complete list of participating stores, please go to: www.victoryrecords.com/silverinch. Only 3,500 of these singles will be produced.

It’s been a long, but thrilling trip for this quintet, who came together in the Toronto suburb of Burlington, Ontario at the turn of the millennium. After putting out two of their own EPs, the band signed to Victory Records and released When Broken Is Easily Fixed, which raised eyebrows throughout North America as sales climbed well past 200,000. SILVERSTEIN’s follow-up Discovering The Waterfront did considerably better. Between the two releases, SILVERSTEIN’s record sales now total beyond a half-million. The band fueled that momentum by performing on a slew of major tours, from A Taste of Chaos and Warped in the States to the Give It A Name and Download festivals in England topped off with their first headlining trek of America—the sold-out Never Shave Again tour in 2006.
