Silverstein has released a new single called “Don’t Let Me Get Too Low” which will appear on the band’s forthcoming album Antibloom.
Silverstein frontman Shane Told said of the track:
“‘Don’t Let Me Get Too Low’ blends our classic sound with our pop-punk and also our hardcore influences. It’s a song that is hard to describe because it does so much in under three minutes. The video was a lot of fun to film, we were in the middle of the desert outside Las Vegas and I was digging my own grave with a big smile on my face. Luckily no cops showed up to ask us what we were doing, that might have been hard to explain.”
Silverstein guitarist Paul Marc Rousseau added:
“Sometimes the only person that can save you from yourself is… yourself? That’s what the lyrics say, anyway. If you watch the video, it’s actually the opposite. Either way, though, we had a great time making this song. Some of it came to us quickly, but a few parts kicked our ass for a while. I lowkey kind of love when the whole room is just grinding out like 10 seconds of music for two hours, though. It feels like the most important thing in the world but also so absurd at the same time. That’s the thing with writing something this short: you have to make sure every second serves a purpose, and I think we accomplished that here. Zero wasted seconds. 100% banger.”
The new song will appear alongside previously released tracks “Confession” and “Skin and Bones” on Anitbloom due out February 21st. Antibloom is the first part of their forthcoming double album Antibloom/Pink Moon. Pink Moon is expected to arrive later this year.
Silverstein will play Concord in Chicago on February 11th with Arm’s Length set to open.
