Let’s be honest here… Silverstein has never been the most original or entertaining post-hardcore outfit out there. And on album number five, “Rescue”, they don’t try too hard to change anything about that image.

The poppier parts have become even more poppy and everything sounds even more streamlined. Lyrically the band deals with insecurities and relationships gone wrong. So basically the lyrics are as cliché as the music itself.

I strongly doubt Silverstein will win over any new fans with “Rescue” seeing as it’s the same album that every other band in the genre has already released once or twice before.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
