Toronto’s alt punk four piece Napoleon have collaborated with other Canadian artists on their upcoming EP, Enemy Within, that is set for release on June 11th. The EP features guest vocalist spots from Corbin Giroux of Rarity and Shane Told of Silverstein, the latter is featured on the raw and energetic new single and video, I Better Run. “Having Shane sing on the song, and perform in the music video was truly an incredible experience. Silverstein is a very important band to us, and Napoleon definitely would not be the same band we are without them, so just having the experience of collaborating and becoming peers with someone who has been a big inspiration on us was absolutely incredible, and is something we will cherish for the rest of our lives.” You can stream Better...
Misery Made Me
2022 release. Filled with moments of relentless energy throwing back to their punk and hardcore roots to visionary moments of modern heavy, Silverstein's Misery Made Me fastens the group's status as torchbearers of the scene on all fronts. It's both intriguing and inspiring that a band - who could have merely rested on the impressive legacy they've already cemented - would continue to dig deep and find the inspiration to reach people in meaningful new ways. On Misery Made Me - and their 22nd lap around the scene - Silverstein ultimately find themselves spring-boarding off the heights they've reached over the past handful of years. "For the first time in our career, we truly put it all out there. We went into this with no rules and no preconceived notions of what Silverstein is or what it could be. The results are bold. We somehow wrote the heaviest, saddest, catchiest, and most emotional songs in 22 years of being a band... all on the same album," reveals vocalist Shane Told.
